Abstract

A constraint-free superfield formalism for supergravity is described. We expand the superfield action in component fields to obtain the first derivation of the standard component-field supergravity action from a superfield formalism. The superfield formalism of supergravity is analogous to the superfield formalism of globally supersymmetric gauge theories, the gauge group here being the superspace translation group.
