Abstract

We present the explicit expressions of different pseudogauge transformations for Dirac and Proca fields considering a general interaction term. The particular case of the interaction of Dirac and Proca fields with a background electromagnetic field is also studied. Starting from the quantum kinetic theory with collisions derived from the Wigner-function formalism for massive spin-1/2 and spin-1 particles, we establish a connection between different pseudogauges and relativistic spin hydrodynamics. The physical implications of the various decompositions of orbital and spin angular momentum are discussed.
