Massive Superstring Vertex Operator in D=10 Superspace
Abstract
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-Poincar\'e covariant manner. This vertex operator describes a massive spin-two multiplet in terms of ten-dimensional superfields.
