Description
A renormalized supercurrent is constructed for the massive and massless supersymmetric gphi3 model of Wess and Zumino. Its pivotal position in the study of the super-conformal group is demonstrated. All anomalies occurring in the superconformal currents' Ward identities are shown to be directly related to the Callan-Symanzik functions β and γ. These turn out to be mass independent under suitable off-shell normalization conditions. (Auth.)
