Pseudo Vector


Pseudo Vector : A quantity that behaves as a vector as long as the handedness of the coordinate system (i.e., it is right- or left-handed) remains unchanged. Changing the handedness changes the direction of the quantity. For this reason, vectors cannot be equated to pseudo vectors (see, e.g., Pujol , 2009) An example of a pseudovector is the vector product of two vectors. Pseudo vectors are also known as axial vectors. See axial tensor, vector or scalar
