- | Spin-$0$ particles and fields transform under the trivial representation of $SU(2)$. That is, their spin value does not change under rotation. | + | Spin-$0$ particles transform under the trivial representation of $SU(2)$. That is, their spin value does not change under rotation. |
The action (and often the Lagrangian) transforms under the trivial representation of the Lorentz group and the relevant gauge groups. That is, the action is not affected by these symmetry transformations. | The action (and often the Lagrangian) transforms under the trivial representation of the Lorentz group and the relevant gauge groups.
