Couplings of self-dual tensor multiplet in six dimensions

Open full text 48 citations

Abstract

The (1,0) supersymmetry in six dimensions admits a tensor multiplet which contains a second-rank antisymmetric tensor field with a self-dual field strength and a dilaton. We describe the fully supersymmetric coupling of this multiplet to a Yang - Mills multiplet, in the absence of supergravity. The self-duality equation for the tensor field involves a Chern - Simons modified field strength, the gauge fermions and an arbitrary dimensionful parameter.
