Superspace gauge-invariant formulation of a massive tridimensional 2-form field - art. no. 025005

By dimensional reduction of a massive supersymmetric B boolean ANDF theory, a manifestly N=1 supersymmetric completion of a massive antisymmetric tens or gauge theory is constructed in 2+1 dimensions. In N=1-D =3 superspace, a new topological term is used to give mass to the Kalb-Ramond field. We int roduce a massive gauge invariant model using the Stuckelberg formalism and an Abelian topologically massive theory for the Kalb-Ramond superfield. An equivalence of both massive models is suggested. Further, a component field analysis is performed, showing a second supersymmetry in the model.
