Abstract
WE proposed some years ago1 a modification of the formalism of the quantum theory for the cases in which the following condition is satisfied: where p1, E1 and p2, E2 are 4-vectors corresponding to two states of a particle in a quantum transition, and r0 is a universal length, r0 ˜ 10-13 cm.
