Q:Any knowledge as to whether a spin 0 cooper pair is pseudoscalar? Any idea where else I might look?

A:A standard s-wave Cooper pair is represented by an ordinary scalar wave-function. I'll try to check with somebody more knowledgeable to see if any of the more exotic pairing functions behave like pseudo-scalars.
