Massive superstring vertex operator in \(D = 10\) superspace. (English) Zbl 1226.81158

Summary: 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-Poincaré covariant manner. This vertex operator describes a massive spin-two multiplet in terms of ten-dimensional superfields.
