Massive Superstring Vertex Operator in D = 10 Superspace
- Physics
- 2002
Using the pure spinor formalism for the superstring, the vertex operator for the first massive states of the open superstring is constructed in a manifestly super-Poincare covariant manner. This…
Instanton Solutions in Open Superstring Field Theory
- Mathematics
- 2021
Open superstring field theory admits a “hybrid” formulation where N = 1 D = 4 supersymmetry is manifest for Calabi-Yau compactifications to four dimensions. Using this formulation, the half-BPS…
Superfield equations forN=1 massive multiplets
- Physics
- 2006
We consider equations of motion for some massiveN=1 supermultiplets of fields, using superfields and their superderivatives. The formalism is based on the superprojectors.
Pure-spinor superstrings in d = 2,4,6
- Physics
- 2005
We continue the study of the d = 2,4,6 pure-spinor superstring models introduced in [1]. By explicitly solving the pure-spinor constraint we show that these theories have vanishing central charge and…

Scattering amplitudes in open superstring theory
- Physics
- 2012
This review is concerned with scattering amplitudes in open superstring theories. In particular, we introduce two different formalisms to compute tree level amplitudes – the Ramond Neveu Schwarz‐…

A New Description of the Superstring
- Physics
- 1996
This is a review of the new manifestly spacetime-supersymmetric description of the superstring. The new description contains N=2 worldsheet supersymmetry, and is related by a field redefinition to…
