Abstract

The problems of unitarity, causality and renormalizability are treated in a field theory containing an unstable particle. Perturbation theory is suitably modified and leads to an implicit equation for complete propagators. The S-matrix constructed with these propagators and connecting stable particle states only is shown to be unitary, renormalizable and causal. It is also shown to give rise to interpolating Heisenberg fields which verify the original field equations.
