Abstract

This note provides an intrinsic construction of the Carrollian superplane ΠSR24\Pi \mathbb{S}\simeq \mathbb{R}^{2|4} as a supermanifold generalisation of the Carrollian plane. Moving away from the c0c\rightarrow 0 limit of relativistic spinors, we define Carroll spinors as sections of a degenerate Clifford module. We show that the Carrollian superplane is a principal R12\mathbb{R}^{1|2}-bundle. Once clock forms and a complementary basic one-form are specified, there is a pair of odd vector fields that generate novel N=2N =2 Carrollian supersymmetry transformations, not all of which come from an In\"on\"u--Wigner contraction of a Poincar\'e superalgebra
