Résumé : The Friedrichs model has often been used in order to obtain explicit formulas for eigenvectors associated to complex eigenvalues corresponding to lifetimes. Such eigenvectors are called Gamow vectors and they acquire meaning in extensions of the conventional Hilbert space of quantum theory to the so-called rigged Hilbert space. In this paper, Gamow vectors are constructed for a solvable model of an unstable relativistic field. As a result, we obtain a time asymmetric relativistic extension of the Fock space. This extension leads to two distinct Poincaré semigroups. The time reversal transformation maps one semigroup to the other. As a result, the usual PCT invariance should be extended. We show that irreversibility as expressed by dynamical semigroups is compatible with the requirements of relativity.
