Gauge transformations for six-dimensional superfields

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

We give forD=6 the general gauge transformations that keep the superfield within the Wess-Zumino gauge (any component with less than two indices of each type α,\(\dot \alpha \) is absent). We built the gauge-invariant components and write down all the partial Lagrangians. Finally we briefly discuss a dimensional reduction toD=4.
