AbstractIn the framework of nonlocal quantum field theory we have constructed a quantized field called the virton field satisfying the conditions: the field of free virton quanta is equal identically to zero the causal function of this virton field differs from zero. We consider this virton field can be a good candidate for the description of quark confinement.It is suggested that the physical particles are described by the ordinary quantized fields but they interact with each other through the quark‐virton field only. Using the simplest form of the interaction Lagrangian invariant under transformations of the SU(3) × SUc(3) × U1 group, the mass corrections, some strong, weak and electromagnetic decays of the vector and pseudoscalar mesons are considered. A good agreement with experiment is obtained.
