For every , the three sectors have total opening . Identifying the upper boundary with the lower boundary using produces a spinless spatial cone . The ray data, metric coefficients, seam, and packet vary continuously with . The particle axis is fixed pointwise and the oriented rest-frame rotation is .
Proof. Since , each sector is a convex wedge with independent boundary rays. Its opening is , so the total is . The upper ray has angle ; rotation by sends it to angle , the lower ray. All formulas are continuous, and , so Lemma lem:spinless applies.
