Abstract
In this paper, we review the fundamental aspects of N=1 supergravity and employ the chiral formalism to describe spin-32 fermions. Armed with this, we analyze the discrete symmetries of the graviton in the context of linearized gravity (LG) and Rarita-Schwinger (RS) fields, which include the description of the gravitino. Additionally, we highlight the advantages of the chiral formalism in classifying Lorentz and CPT-violating terms in RS theories, extending these models by including Lorentz-violating operators, as has been done in LG.
