Description

The spectrum of multiplets with two central charges which vanish on-shell are analysed and the general spin-reducing constraint is show to still leave an infinite number of propagating modes of the same mass. The analysis is performed by deriving field equations from actions involving integration over the central charge dimensions. The implications of results for bypassing the N = 3 barrier are briefly considered. (author)
