Vertex operators for the superstring with manifest supersymmetry

Cassiano A. Daniel

By extending the six-dimensional hybrid formalism for the superstring to include superspace variables along with unconstrained bosonic ghost fields, we constr…

Covariant quantization of the superstring in with mixed flux

Cassiano A. Daniel

A quantizable and manifestly -invariant action for the superstring in with mixed NS-NS and R-R self-du…

Integrating out the fermions in AdS

Cassiano A. Daniel

Not much is known about superstring scattering amplitudes in curved backgrounds. Using the hybrid formalism in with pure NS-NS three-form flux, we compute a…

Spin-3/2 and spin-2 charged massive states in a constant electromagnetic background

Karim Benakli, Cassiano A. Daniel, Wenqi Ke

We develop in components the superspace action obtained in arXiv:2110.07623 describing the first massive level of the open charged superstring in a flat four-dimensional spacetime.…

Open Superstring First Mass Level Effective Lagrangian: Massive Spin-3/2 Fields in an Electromagnetic Background

Karim Benakli, Cassiano A. Daniel, Wenqi Ke

We derive fully explicit equations of motion, and the associated set of constraints, describing the propagation in a flat space-time of a charged spin-3/2 massive state in a consta…

Open Superstring First Mass Level Effective Lagrangian: Massive Spin-2 in an Electromagnetic Background

Karim Benakli, Cassiano A. Daniel, Wenqi Ke

Minimal coupling leads to problems such as loss of causality if one wants to describe charged particles of spin greater than one propagating in a constant electromagnetic backgroun…

Higher-Spin States of the Superstring in an Electromagnetic Background

Karim Benakli, Nathan Berkovits, Cassiano A. Daniel +1

Constructing a consistent four-dimensional Lagrangian for charged massive higher-spin fields propagating in an electromagnetic background is an open problem. In 1989, Argyres and N…
