We study the general non-minimally coupled charged massive spin 3/2 model both for its low energy phenomenological properties and for its unitarity, causality and degrees of freedom behaviour. When the model is viewed as an effective theory, its parameters (after ensuring the correct excitation count) are related to physical characteristics, such as the magnetic moment g factor, by means of low energy theorems. We also provide the corresponding higher spin generalisation. Separately, we consider both low and high energy unitarity, as well as the causality aspects of our models. None (including truncated N=2 supergravity) is free of the minimal model's acausality.

  1. (Super)$\,$Gravity from Positivity

    hep-th 2025-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Positivity of scattering amplitudes forces weakly coupled EFTs of a massive spin-3/2 particle to include gravity, and for charged states a gauged photon with g=2 and WGC-saturating charge.

  2. On-shell recursion relations for higher-spin Compton amplitudes

    hep-th 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    The all-line transverse shift makes four-point electromagnetic and gravitational Compton amplitudes on-shell constructible for massive spin s≤3/2 and s≤5/2, respectively, starting from minimal three-point amplitudes.

  3. Planck mass gravitinos in Einstein-Maxwell backgrounds

    hep-th 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    Consistency of minimally coupled Rarita-Schwinger fields in Einstein-Maxwell backgrounds requires a mass lower bound set by charge and cosmological constant, forcing Planck-scale masses for charged gravitinos.
