Duality gives a satisfying connexion between two different areas of strong interaction physics, Regge poles at high energy and resonances at low energy. This interlocking gives powerful bootstrap conditions, and together with the assumption that certain channels do not contain resonances it gives strong restrictions on the hadron spectrum. Since there is some confusion about the term duality, we shall explain what is meant by the various forms of duality (f. e. s. r. (finite energy sum rules) duality, local duality), and what is meant by ‘building up’, and we shall show in what way antidual models (such as the generalized interference model) come into conflict with basic empirical facts. Duality expresses the relation between two descriptions of the hadronic scattering amplitude. At low energy (l. e.) the description by direct-channel resonances is simple and useful (see figure 1). At low energy the data show prominent peaks as a function of energy, and one may try the approximation of resonance saturation, i. e. of neglecting the non-resonating background. The second description is the exchange of Regge poles, and it is useful at high energies (h.e.), where typical features are forward peaks, energy dependence s α , and structure at fixed t (see figure 2). The two descriptions are very different; resonance formation corresponds to poles in the s channel, Regge exchange to poles in the t channel. Duality says that there are direct relations between these two descriptions, that they are equivalent in a certain sense. In complete contrast, the interference models postulate that one must add the two descriptions. (If lowest order perturbation theory was relevant to strong interactions, one would be led to adding the diagrams.)

Soft hadron-collision processes at high energies are considered, under the assumption that gluon interactions are short-ranged and that the rules of the 1/Nc expansion are fulfilled. It is shown, that these considerations lead to the scheme of the additive quark model with some relatively large additional effects of colour screening. This colour screening is responsible for the unnatural breaking of the Levin-Frankfurt condition1 and also for the effective increase of cross sections for hadron-nucleus interactions2 if quark bags in nuclei exist, The formation mechanism of fragmentational particles is considered in multiple hadron-production processes.

The bulk loss function Im(-l/ε (ω)), a well established tool for the interpretation of valence loss spectra, is being progressively adapted to the wide variety of inhomogeneous samples of interest to the electron microscopist. Proportionality between n, the local valence electron density, and ε-1 (Sellmeyer's equation) has sometimes been assumed but may not be valid even in homogeneous samples. Figs. 1 and 2 show the experimentally measured bulk loss functions for three pure silicates of different specific gravity ρ - quartz (ρ = 2.66), coesite (ρ = 2.93) and a zeolite (ρ = 1.79). Clearly, despite the substantial differences in density, the shift of the prominent loss peak is very small and far less than that predicted by scaling e for quartz with Sellmeyer's equation or even the somewhat smaller shift given by the Clausius-Mossotti (CM) relation which assumes proportionality between n (or ρ in this case) and (ε - 1)/(ε + 2). Both theories overestimate the rise in the peak height for coesite and underestimate the increase at high energies.
