Massless spin 3/2 field, spherical solutions, eliminating of the gauge degrees of freedom

Relativistic system for a vector-bispinior describing a massless spin 3/2 field is studied in the spherical coordinates of Minkowski space. Presentation of the equation with the use of the covariant Levi-Civita tensor exhibits existence of the gauge solutions in the form of the covariant 4-gradient of an arbitrary bispinor. Substitution for 16-component field function is based on the use of Wigner functions, it assumes diagonalization of the operators of energy, square and third projection of the total angular momentum, and space reflection. We derive radial system for eight independent functions. General structure of the spherical gauge solutions is specified, and it is demonstrated that the gauge radial functions satisfy the derived system. It is proved that the general system reduces to two couples of independent 2-nd order and nonhomogeneous differential equations, their particular solutions may be found with the use of the gauge solutions. The corresponding homogeneous equations have one the same form, they have three regular singularities and one irregular of the rank 2. Frobenius types solutions for this equation have been constructed, and the structure of the involved power series with 4-term recurrent relations sre studied. Six remaining radial functions may be straightforwardly found by means of the simple algebraic relations. Thus, we have constructed two types of solutions with opposite parities which do not contain gauge constituents.
