Abstract
The two common applications of O(4,2) as a conformal group on external space‐time coordinates and as a dynamical group on internal relative coordinates are combined into a unified algebraic structure for composite systems. A method is given for obtaining from this structure infinite‐component wave equations and a discrete, linearly increasing mass spectrum.Keywords
