Superfield formulation of skew-symmetric tensor gauge field theories

Суперполевая формулировка асимметричных тензорных калибровочных теорий поля

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1971-1996)

Summary

The Abelian gauge quantum field theories of skew-symmetric tensor fields are reviewed in the fremework of the superfield formalism previously proposed. The BRS invariance properties of those theories and the role of the secondary ghosts are discussed.

Riassunto

Le teorie quantistiche di gauge abeliane per campi tensoriali antisimmetrici sono riviste nello schema di formalismo di supercampi, proposto precedentemente. Si discutono le proprietà d’invarianza di queste teorie per transformazioni di BRS e il ruolo dei «ghost» secondari.

Резюме

Заново анализируются абелевы калибровочные квантовые теории поля для асимметричных тензорных полей в рамкак суперполевого формализма, предложенного ранее. Обсуждаются BRS инвариантные свойства этих теорий и и роль вторичных духов.
