A BRST APPROACH TO MASSLESS GAUGE FIELDS OF INTEGER SPIN

Thomas Domeij · International Journal of Modern Physics A · 1990

We present a method based on BRST techniques for how to obtain the conventional equations for symmetric tensor gauge fields which describe free massless particles of arbitrary integer spin. We do so in a wave function representation in a flat space-time background of any dimension. A fairly straightforward way is also presented for how to obtain the equations from a gauge invariant Lagrangian of the form [Formula: see text].
