Quantized gauged massless Rarita-Schwinger fields

We study the quantization of a minimally gauged massless Rarita-Schwinger field, by both the Dirac bracket and functional integral methods. The Dirac bracket approach in the covariant radiation gauge leads to an anticommutator that has a nonsingular limit as gauge fields approach zero, is manifestly positive semidefinite, and is Lorentz invariant. The constraints also have the form needed to apply the Faddeev-Popov method for deriving a functional integral, using the same constrained Hamiltonian and inverse constraint matrix that appear in the Dirac bracket approach.
