Abstract
We covariantly quantize the ten-dimensional first-ilk ( ABCD) superparticle using BRST methods. The constraints that define this system are infinitely reducible, leading to the introduction of an infinite number of ghosts. We find both the minimal set of ghosts needed to fix this reducibility, as well as a larger redundant set with the property that the ghosts fall into a finite number of OSp(9, 1|2) representations. We construct the BRST operator and verify that its cohomology contains exactly the 8 + 8 states of the ten-dimensional super Yang-Mills multiplet.
