 Solution

For the two free real scalar fields, let $\mathcal{L}={\mathcal{L}}_1+{\mathcal{L}}_2$. The infinitesimal internal rotation symmetry of two real scalar fields has $\delta {\varphi }_1=\theta {\varphi }_2$ and $\delta {\varphi }_2=-\theta {\varphi }_1$, with constant $\theta$. Its kinetic terms are invariant because this is an orthogonal rotation of the two-component field.

Under the assumed invariance of the full Lagrangian density, Noether's theorem gives the current per unit transformation parameter:The Noether current and Noether charge are thereforeIndependent species commute at equal time, so these products require no extra ordering sign. With vanishing boundary flux, $Q$ is conserved. Part (vii) checks precisely what the symmetry assumption requires of the masses.
