"n + 𝑛" is a system of two identical spin ½ particles. Thus, 𝜓𝑡𝑜𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑓 should

be anti-symmetric under interchange of two. Total symmetry is −1. “Space” symmetry = (−1)ℓ

Charge Conjugation [1]

C parity is conserved with strong and electromagnetic interaction :

but not with the weak interaction (will be discussed later). We will discuss only C-parity conserved cases.

26

The charge conjugation መ𝐶 is the operation which replaces all particles by their anti-particles in the same state.

The charged particles cannot be 𝑪eigenstate.

For particles 𝒂 (= 𝜋+, 𝐾+, 𝑝) which have distinctive anti-particles, wavefunctions are changed with መ𝐶operation as :

For particles 𝜶 (= 𝜋0, g,…) which do not have distinctive anti-particles are eigenstates of the መ𝐶 operation as a single particle :

𝑪|𝜶 ۧ𝝍 = 𝑪𝜶|𝜶 ۧ𝝍

In this case one can get a quantum number C, called “C parity”.

𝑪| ۧ𝒂𝝍 = | ۧഥ𝒂𝝍

መ𝐶, 𝐻 = 0

መ𝐶2 = 1, therefore 𝐶𝜶 = ±1

𝑪 ۧ𝒆+ = ۧ𝒆− ≠ | ۧ𝒆+

𝑪 ۧ𝝅+ = ۧ𝝅− ≠ | ۧ𝝅+

Clearly the charge conjugation operation satisfies: 𝑪| ۧ𝜸 = 𝑪𝜸|𝜶𝜸 ۧ𝝍

| ۧ𝜸 ≡ | ൿ𝜶𝜸𝝍𝜸

In case of multi-particle system, the C-parity is a multiplicativenumber:

If the multi-particle system are symmetric with the Ĉ operation, the system is an eigenstate of the Ĉ operation and has definite C-parity, for example:

𝑪| ۧp+p− = −𝟏 𝓵| ۧp+p−

In general case which contains same number of fermions 𝑓 and anti-fermion ҧ𝑓, it is: 𝐶 ൿ𝑓 ҧ𝑓; 𝐽, 𝐿, 𝑆 = −1 𝐿+𝑆 ൿ𝑓 ҧ𝑓; 𝐽, 𝐿, 𝑆 ,

C-parity of g

ExerciseMaxwell’s Equations

C-parity of photon? It can be inferred from the behavior of the classical electromagnetic field under the charge conjugation.

Electric field and potential changes its sign with the charge conjugate:

Since 𝐸 = −𝛻𝜙 −𝜕 Ԧ𝐴

𝜕𝑡, we found 𝐶𝛾 = −1 𝑱𝑷𝑪(𝜸) = 𝟏−−

C-parity of p0

29

“Conserved” -> (Initial state C parity) = (Final state C parity)

C−parity of mulri−particle system is a multiplicative number.Therefore, 𝐶 | ۧ𝛾𝛾 = (−1)(−1)| ۧ𝛾𝛾 . ∴ 𝐶𝜋0 = +1

This agrees with 𝐶 ൿ𝑓 ҧ𝑓; 𝐽, 𝐿, 𝑆 = −1 𝐿+𝑆 ൿ𝑓 ҧ𝑓; 𝐽, 𝐿, 𝑆 , where 𝐿 + 𝑆 = 0.

𝜋0 dominantly decays into 2 photons with EM interaction: 𝜋0 → 𝛾𝛾 Feynman diagram:

𝑱𝑷𝑪(𝜸) = 𝟏−−

Exercise: For a case of 𝝅+𝝅− system (𝒔𝝅± = 𝟎) with orbital angular momentum L, the C parity is 𝐶 ۧ𝝅+𝝅−; 𝐿 = −1 𝐿+𝑆 ۧ𝝅+𝝅−; 𝐿 .

The charge conjugation መ𝐶 is the operation which replaces all particles by their anti-particles in the same state.
