On Linearized Nordstr\"om Supergravity in Eleven and Ten Dimensional Superspaces

High Energy Physics - Theory 2019-05-24 v4

Abstract

As the full off-shell theories of supergravity in the important dimensions of eleven and ten dimensions are currently unknown, we introduce a superfield formalism as a foundation and experimental laboratory to explore the possibility that the scalar versions of the higher dimensional supergravitation theory can be constructed.
