Description

Chiralspin SU(2)_CS and SU(2N_F) symmetries
are symmetries of the fermionic charge operator
and of the chromo-electric intraction in QCD. They
contain as subgroups chiral symmeries of the
QCD lagrangian. In addition to the chiral
transformations they include a mixing of the left-
and right-handed components of quarks. They
emerge in QCD upon truncation of the near-zero modes of the Dirac operator as well as at high temperatures which has profound implications.
