    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Teoretisk fysik

    Author : John Paton; [2016]
    Keywords : string theory; pure spinors; pure spinor formalism; amplitudes; N-point; BRST;

    Abstract : This thesis reviews the method of Mafra, Schlotterer, and Stieberger (2011) for computing the full colour ordered N-point open superstring amplitude using the Pure Spinor formalism.
