It is true that we use $SU(2)$ representation matrices for the integer as well as the half integer spins. But for the integer spins (and only the integer ones), the $SU(2)$ representation matrices are unitarily equivalent to $SO(3)$ matrices, i.e.,$ M_{SU(2)} = V M_{SO(3)} V^{-1}$, where $V$ is unitary. $ M_{SO(3)}$ is a representation of $SO(3)$, in particular all of its matrix elements are real. | |
