 Global phase symmetry

An internal circle group action with spacetime-independent parameter $\alpha$. For canonical complex scalar fields, Noether's theorem gives $j^{\mu }=i{\sum }_j{q}_j{\phi }_j^{†}\overleftrightarrow{{\partial }^{\mu }}{\phi }_j$. The Noether charge of the particle annihilated by ${\phi }_j$ is $q_j$, and its antiparticle has charge $-q_j$.
