Abstract: (Elsevier)
We study two-dimensional conformal field theories generated from a “symplectic fermion” — a free two-component fermion field of spin one — and construct the maximal local supersymmetric conformal field theory generated from it. This theory has central charge c =−2 and provides the simplest example of a theory with logarithmic operators.
