SO(3) Noether current of a real scalar triplet
ID: so-3-noether-current-of-a-real-scalar-triplet
A real triplet with a rotationally invariant common mass term has three conserved internal currents. With the displayed sign convention, the current for is the negative of the conventional canonical current contracted with . Overall current sign does not affect conservation. Integrated charges require convergent integrals and vanishing net boundary flux; a local continuity equation alone does not guarantee conservation in an open region.
