Superfield methods of quantization in supergravity

OSTI ID:6089577
The superfield quantization of N = 1 conformal supergravity is studied in the Ogievetskii-Sokachev formalism in the chiral and spinor parametrization. The quantum BRST transformations in the effective action are determined. The quantization of minimal Einstein supergravity is carried out in the conformal approach with a compensating chiral superfield and also in the approach based on the restricted supergroup preserving the chiral supervolume. The geometrical interpretation of the background quantization of superfield supergravity is discussed.
