Hi,


Is it possible to construct chiral superfield from Vectorsuperfields and/or combinations of vector superfield and some another chiral superfield...


Thanks

You can look for massive vector superfields, which actually are the combination of a massless vector superfield and a massless chiral superfield. And in some sense a N=1 massive is as a N=2 massless.

Sure this is possible, the most important example is the spinor superfield W_alpha out of which the kinetic term is constructed.
