Superparticle in an external chiral matter superfield

Abstract

In this paper the interaction Lagrangian of a superparticle with an external chiral superfield $\Phi(x,\theta,\bar{\theta})$,invariant with respect to the global supersymmetry, is proposed. The kinematics of the superparticle is defined in an extended superspace described by superspace coordinates $(x_{\mu},\theta_{\alpha},\bar{\theta}_{\alpha})$, where $x_{\mu}$ are pure bosonic coordinates, $\mu=0,\ldots,3$; $\theta_{\alpha}$ and $\bar{\theta}_{\alpha}$ are additional fermionic Grassmann-valued spinors. With the purpose of the construction of the required Lagrangian, chiral analogues of the supervector $A_{\mu}(x,\theta,\bar{\theta})$ and superspinor $A_{\alpha}(x,\theta,\bar{\theta})$, $\bar{A}_{\dot{\alpha}}(x,\theta,\bar{\theta})$ gauge fields are introduced, which are also matrices in color space. The problem considered in this paper is the further step in deriving the dynamical equations of motion for a spin color-charged particle moving in an external fermionic matter field. These equations of motion are of fundamental importance, for example, when taking into account the influence of fermionic background fields induced in a hot quark-gluon plasma (QGP) by thermal fluctuations on the dynamics of hard color-charged partons crossing the QGP. In turn, the solution of this problem will make it possible, at least at the qualitative level, to advance in the study of the motion in the external fermion matter field of such a complex physical object as a string.
