Twistor approach to classical and quantum D0-brane
Abstract
We develop the (super)twistor approach to D$0$-brane, which is the massive type IIA superparticle in ten dimensional spacetime. The basic variables are hexadecuplet of constrained $OSp(32|1)$ supertwistors similar but not identical to the ones which have been used for the description of 11D massless superparticle, also known as M$0$-brane. We show how the constrained supertwistor formulation is related to the spinor moving frame approach to D$0$-brane. We perform the quantization of the model by two different methods and discuss the relation of the results with the quantization of the spinor moving frame formulation of D$0$-brane. The quantum state spectrum describes the massive counterpart of the linearized type IIA supergravity.
