is a fermionic chiral spinor superfield. Its chirality follows directly from the Abelian field-strength chiral projection:There are only two independent barred supersymmetric covariant derivatives, and their equal-chirality anticommutators vanish. Every product of three barred derivatives therefore vanishes. Equivalently, the previous calculation has no independent barred Grassmann variable at fixed . The free undotted index makes this a chiral spinor superfield, rather than a scalar chiral superfield; its lowest component is the odd gaugino .
