Microscopic asymmetries in neutrino physics are examined, which are due to the presence of a vorticity field of matter. We extend the results of an earlier paper to a complete basis of invariant angular momentum and energy modes. These modes provide a representation basis for the algebra of the total angular momentum of the system. The angular momentum space appears to be polarized along the direction determined by the local vorticity field Omega-arrow-right. The neutrino asymmetry of currents is calculated for these modes.
