- A massive spin 1 particle has three degrees of polarization for the obvious reason that in its rest frame its spin vector can point in three different directions. The three polarization vectors #92;epsilon#95;#92;mu#123;(a)#125; are simply the three unit vectors pointing along the x, y, and z axes...2003, A.
