 Solution

The barred notation denotes the antichiral supersymmetric covariant derivative. Write barred spinor indices as dotted indices, and use the stated plus-sign convention with left Grassmann derivatives:Their supercovariant derivative algebra with left derivatives gives $\{{\bar{D}}_{\dot{\alpha }},{\bar{D}}_{\dot{\beta }}\}=0$ and $\{D_{\alpha },{\bar{D}}_{\dot{\beta }}\}=2i{\sigma }_{\alpha \dot{\beta }}^{\mu }{\partial }_{\mu }$. The constraint $\boxed{{\bar{D}}_{\dot{\alpha }}\Phi =0}$ defines a chiral superfield, also called an L-superfield.

To solve the constraint, put $y^{\mu }=x^{\mu }+i\theta {\sigma }^{\mu }\bar{\theta }$. For a left Grassmann derivative, ${\partial }_{{\bar{\theta }}^{\dot{\alpha }}}(\theta {\sigma }^{\mu }\bar{\theta })=-{\theta }^{\beta }{\sigma }_{\beta \dot{\alpha }}^{\mu }$. Therefore ${\bar{D}}_{\dot{\alpha }}{y}^{\mu }=0$ and ${\bar{D}}_{\dot{\alpha }}{\theta }^{\beta }=0$, so $\bar{D}$ becomes ordinary differentiation with respect to $\bar{\theta }$ at fixed $y$. Its general solution is the chiral-superfield component expansionHere $A$ is a complex scalar, $\chi$ a Weyl spinor, and $F$ a complex auxiliary field. Before imposing field equations of motion this is four real bosonic and four real fermionic components. Chirality means independence of $\bar{\theta }$ at fixed $y$, rather than at fixed $x$. The differential supercharges $Q_{\alpha }={\partial }_{{\theta }^{\alpha }}-i{\sigma }_{\alpha \dot{\beta }}^{\mu }{\bar{\theta }}^{\dot{\beta }}{\partial }_{\mu }$ and ${\bar{Q}}_{\dot{\alpha }}={\partial }_{{\bar{\theta }}^{\dot{\alpha }}}-i{\theta }^{\beta }{\sigma }_{\beta \dot{\alpha }}^{\mu }{\partial }_{\mu }$ anticommute with both covariant derivatives, so a supersymmetry transformation preserves the chiral constraint.
