Massless equation for an antisymmetric tensor field

Journal Article · · Sov. Phys. J. (Engl. Transl.); (United States)
OSTI ID:6679820
Starting from the formalism of covariant spin projection operators we present a general derivation and analysis of massless equations with zero helicity for an antisymmetric tensor field. We show that the minimal electromagnetic interaction for gauge-invariant equations is inconsistent.
