Abstract

Superconformal field theory is used to compute off-shell amplitudes for the superstring. Off-shell three- and four-point functions in Witten's superstring field theory are obtained. The problem of gauge invariance due to the associativity anomaly in the bosonic sector is resolved to order g2.
