Positive-energy one-particle Poincaré group representations have labels for , and for finite-helicity massless states; individual massive polarizations add . An massive supermultiplet is labelled by mass and superspin , with constituent labels
A massless supermultiplet has constituent labels
A CPT completion of a supermultiplet additionally supplies , with conjugated internal charges where applicable. Constituent spins/helicities are the labels here, not counts of polarizations.
