Abstract

We discuss “collapse of the wavefunction” as the phenomenon underlying chiral symmetry breaking in quenched QED4. The 1/ r singularity in the “collapsed” q q wavefunction causes “catalyzed symmetry breaking” which is the field theoretic analog of “monopole induced proton decay.”. The evasion of mean field exponents by the quenched theory's chiral phase transition is emphasized.
