Abstract or Description

This paper introduces a new approach to Bose and Fermi statistics, based on twistor theory. We treat here the case of massless free field, and show how 2-particle states (containing either two fermions or two bosons) can be characterized as sheaf cohomology elements on the space of pairs of symmetrized projective twistors.
