Abstract: (Elsevier)
Using a semiclassical description of relativistic strings we show that a certain transformation of their mass spectrum should yield a simple exponential function. This result applies in particular to the dual models at their critical dimension. It is also true for the experimental hadronic mass spectrum, up to energies where our knowledge of it becomes incomplete.
