Supercurrents and superconformal symmetry
Journal Article
·
· Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
A superspace variational formulation of supercurrents and their associated anomalies is presented, with emphasis on showing its foundation on superconformal symmetry. Parameters of superconformal transformations are embedded in a spinor superfield, in terms of which local-superconformal variations of superfields are defined. The one-loop supercurrent anomalies are calculated for the Wess-Zumino model and supersymmetric QED by the path-integral method.
