Helicity is an extrinsic physical property related to the alignment of spin and momentum; chirality is related to weak interactions. Chirality is more akin to electric charge or strong color charge than it is …
Polarisation, spin, helicity, chirality and parity keep confusing me. They seem to be related, but exactly how they are related is unclear to me. Can someone maybe give a short overview about what ...

2018年1月22日 · Then boost it to the opposite infinitesimal momentum so it has the opposite helicity. The helicity is then a step function of the momentum. What is the value at the midpoint of a step …
But helicity's current is always conserved in time (this fact doesn't depend on mass; this is expressed in $ (1)$). You also may build the expression for helicity's weak current and see that it is different from …

2017年3月4日 · For a particle, the helicity and chirality are identical while for an antiparticle, the helicity and chirality are opposite in the massless case. So, for massless particles has left-handed chirality …
Because that's the way it is: the photon doesn't have spin, it only has helicity. Essentially, massive particles have spin, massless ones have helicity.
2018年5月3日 · Neutrinos are produced in beta decays with a given helicity. My question is wether this helicity is a constant of this movement or is it variable?
