Abstract
We have developed the dualization of ordinary and 'Stueckelberg compensated ' massive phases for Kalb-Ramond fields. The compensated phase allows the s tudy of the interplay between spin jumping and duality. We show that spin j umping is caused by mass, while gauge symmetry is not necessary for this ef fect to occur.
