Wess-Zumino gauge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In particle physics, the Wess-Zumino gauge is a particular choice of a gauge transformation in a gauge theory with supersymmetry. In this gauge, the supersymmetrized gauge transformation is chosen in such a way that most components of the vector superfield vanish, except for the usual physical ones, when the function of the superspace is expanded in terms of components.
