Abstract

Composite states in nonrelativistic scattering theory lie on Regge trajectories corresponding to poles in the angular momentum plane that move with varying energy. Composite particles in relativistic field theory are believed to have the same behavior. According to the Regge pole hypothesis, particles like the nucleon also lie on Regge trajectories. An investigition is made to show that the Regge pole boundary conditions are also contained in conventional field theory. Starting with ordiniry perturbation theory, formulas are presented that suggest there is no evidence of conflict between the two points of view. (H.D.R.)
