Summary
A consistent classical Lagrangian for a supersymmetric spinning particle in Riemann-Cartan space-time is presented using superfields in a 2-dimensional superspace. The equations of motion for the position and the spin variables of a particle are investigated in the canonical formalism. The relation with the other models is also discussed.
Riassunto
Si presenta una lagrangiana classica consistente per una particella dotata di spin supersimmetrica nello spazio-tempo di Riemann-Cartan usando supercampi in un superspazio bidimensionale. Si studiano le equazioni di moto per le variabili di posizione e di spin di una particella nel formalismo canonico. Si discutono anche le relazioni con altri modelli.
