Abstract

The fermionic constraints of the massless Casalbuoni-Brink-Schwarz superparticle in d = 10 are separated covariantly as first- and second-class constraints which are infinitely reducible. Although the reducibility conditions of the second-class constraints include the first-class ones a consistent quantization is possible. The ghost structure of the system for quantizing it in terms of the BFV-BRST methods is given and unitarity is shown.
