Abstract
- The paper by Gopalan [(2020). Acta Cryst. A76, 318–327] presented an enumeration of the 41 physical quantity types in non‐relativistic physics, in arbitrary dimensions, based on the formalism of Clifford algebra. Gopalan considered three antisymmetries: spatial inversion, 1, time reversal, 1′, and wedge reversion, 1†. A consideration of the set of all seven antisymmetries (1, 1′, 1†, 1′†, 1†, 1′, 1′†) leads to an extension of the results obtained by Gopalan. It is shown that there are 51 types of physical quantities with distinct symmetry properties in total. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
