Abstract

We extend our previous result on Lorenz-covariant quantization of a free superparticle in the gauge θ ̇=0 to the case of a super Maxwell background. In a general background, the action contains quintic and higher ghost couplings. We give the complete BRST charge before gauge fixing for the case of x-independent field strengths.
