A unique twistor-like Lorentz harmonic formulation for all N=1 supersymmetric extended objects (super-p-branes) moving in spacetime of arbitrary dimension D (admissible for given p) is suggested. The equations of motion are derived, the explicit form of the -symmetry transformations is presented and the classical equivalence to the standard formulation is proved. The cases with minimal worldsheet dimensions p=1,2, namely the D=10 heterotic string and the D=11 supermembrane, are considered in…
