Antisymmetric Tensor Gauge Field in General Covariant Gauges

Toshiei Kimura

Research Institute for Theoretical Physics, Hiroshima University, Takehara, Hiroshima 725

(Received February 25, 1980)

Abstract:

By introducing Lagrangian multiplier fields, the covariant quantization of antisymmetric tensor gauge field is carried out in a general covariant gauge. The confinement of unphysical components is examined from the viewpoint of the “quartet mechanism” of Kugo and Ojima.
