Abstract

We present the complete set of N=1, D=4 quantum algebras associated to massive superparticles. We obtain the explicit solution of these algebras realized in terms of unconstrained operators acting on the Hilbert space of superfields. These solutions are expressed using the chiral, antichiral and tensorial projectors which define the three irreducible representations of the supersymmetry on the superfields. In each case the space-time variables are noncommuting and their commutators are proportional to the internal angular momentum of the representation. The quantum algebra associated to the chiral or the antichiral projector is the one obtained by the quantization of the Casalbuoni-Brink-Schwarz (superspin 0) massive superparticle. We present a new superparticle action for the (superspin 1/2) case and show that their wave functions are the ones associated to the irreducible tensor multiplet.
