Supersymmetric form of the string action in the presence of the gauge field (original) (raw)

Abstract

In this manuscript, we study the superstring theory with an Abelian worldsheet gauge field. The components of the gauge field appear as space and time coordinates. We call them “fictitious coordinates”. The worldsheet supersymmetry and the Poincaré symmetry of this model will be analyzed. The T-duality and quantization of the two fictitious coordinates are also obtained.
