| Aug 27, 2013 at 1:14 | comment | added | Luboš Motl | Thanks, Ben, for having pointed out the previous question. Both answers to that older question, not just yours, are just plain wrong. There doesn't exist any complication of the sort that would obscure the boson/fermion identity of a particle, whether it's elementary or composite. The signs added under exchange are always defined for a particle with a finite angular momentum and they're always tightly linked to the integrality/half-integrality of the angular momentum. This behavior is never obscured; only your answers are obscuring a very clear issue. See my answer over there. | |
