The angular momentum of two massless fields revisited
Abstract
We consider the angular momentum of two massless fields using the Landau's arguments. In particular, we point out the explicit and implicit assumptions made by Landau to obtain the proof that a spin one system cannot decay into two photons. We show also under what conditions the result can be avoided.
