Abstract

We construct a new quantum relativistic oscillator (QRO) based on the spectrum generating group SO(3,2). We show that all the features of the three-dimensional harmonic oscillator are recovered in the non-relativistic limit. This QRO gives a classification of hadrons that leads to the linear Regge trajectories; moreover, the Regge slopes are SU(3) invariant.
