is [itex]\overline{\Psi}[/itex] γ5 [itex]\partial[/itex]2 [itex]\Psi[/itex] Lorentz Invariant? How does this term transform under Lorentz transformations? Here [itex]\Psi[/itex] is a Dirac field.

Thanks

So it changes as a scalar with respect to Lorentz transformations, but changes sign under parity? This means it is Lorentz invariant?
