Abstract: (Springer)
ASO4,2 conformally symmetric model is presented for strong interactions at low energies. In order to obtain a realistic description of interacting gluons and quarks, two Higgs fields are introduced which break theSO4,2 symmetry spontaneously intoSO3,2 andSO3⊗SO2 symmetry, respectively. We obtain an alternative flat metric, invariant under rotations and translations which leave a preferred time-like geodesic invariant. In terms of this metric quarks and gluons carry out harmonic oscillations with universal frequency ν=(2πR)−1 within a spherical cavity of radiusR. This leads to a hadron spectrum with universal level spacinghν, which is in agreement with our earlier observations.
