The massive spinning particle revisited

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-30 v2

Abstract

We propose a formulation of the massive spinning particle in terms of physical bosonic and fermionic fields only. We make use neither of auxiliary objects of the type of γ5\gamma_5 nor of gauge fields. The model is to be used as a suitable starting point for a forthcoming study of the rigid superparticle.
