Abstract
- A previously developed formalism for the bosonic string is extended to the Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond string using 2-d superspace techniques throughout. Three-string vertices for NS and R-strings are constructed, sewing rules developed, and the technique of quasi-superconformal modes is set up for constructing the measure on supermoduli space. Symmetries, such as superconformal invariance and BRST invariance, are guaranteed ab initio. Picture changing and bosonization are avoided. Examples are given. The formalism should allow a superstring loop calculus based on supermoduli. Results concerning the ensuing super-Schottky description are given.
