    Classical affine \(W\)-algebras have been studied in the theory of integrable systems since the 80's, when \textit{V. G. Drinfel'd} and \textit{V. V. Sokolov} [J. Sov. Math. 30, 1975--2036 (1985; Zbl 0578.58040)] discovered relations between a finite-dimensional simple Lie algebra \(\mathfrak g\) and a sequence of integrable systems. The author investigates relations between \(W\)-superalgebras and integrable super-Hamiltonian systems. To this end, the author introduces the generalized Drinfel'd-Sokolov (D-S) reduction associated to a Lie superalgebra \(\mathfrak g\) and its even nilpotent element \(f\), and the author finds a new definition of the classical affine \(W\)-superalgebra \(W(\mathfrak g, f,k)\) via the D-S reduction. This new construction allows to find free generators of \(W(\mathfrak g, f,k)\), viewed as a differential superalgebra, and two independent Lie brackets on \(W(\mathfrak g, f,k)/\partial W(\mathfrak g, f,k)\). Moreover, the author describes super-Hamiltonian systems within the Poisson vertex algebras theory. A \(W\)-superalgebra with certain properties can be understood as an underlying differential superalgebra of a series of integrable super-Hamiltonian systems.
