摘要：

Because of the mass-shell constraint P-mu-P-mu = O, the superparticle coordinates X-mu, P-mu, and theta-alpha, can be replaced by supertwistor variables consisting of two bosonic SO(1,9) Majorana-Weyl spinors and one fermionic SO(1,9) vector. In terms of these supertwistor variables, covariant quantization of the ten-dimensional superparticle is straightforward.
