Solid quantization for non-point particles

In quantum field theory, elemental particles are assumed to be point particles. As a result, the loop integrals are divergent in many cases. Regularization and renormalization are necessary in order to get the physical finite results from the infinite, divergent loop integrations. We propose new quantization conditions for non-point particles. With this solid quantization, divergence could be treated systematically. This method is useful for effective field theory which is on hadron degrees of freedom. The elemental particles could also be non-point ones. They can be studied in this approach as well.
