Abstract
IN Jordan's form of the neutrino theory of light1, the emission of a photon appears as the absorption and re-emission of a neutrino, or the simultaneous emission of a neutrino and an antineutrino, with identical directions. If the energy E and the momentum p transferred in the process are related by the equation as required by the usual theory, the mass of the neutrino must be assumed zero.
