Abstract: We generalize the result of Voronov (1988) to give an expression for the super Mumford form $mu$ on the moduli spaces of super Riemann surfaces with Ramond and Neveu-Schwarz punctures in the limit where the number of punctures is large compared to the genus. In the case of Neveu-Schwarz punctures we consider the super Mumford form over the component of the moduli space corresponding to an odd spin structure. The super Mumford form $mu$ can be used to create a measure whose integral computes scattering amplitudes of superstring theory. We express $mu$ in terms of local bases of $H^0(Sigma,omeg{a}^j)$ for $omega$ the Berezinian line bundle of a family of super Riemann surfaces.

Review text

Cet article calcule explicitement les super formes de Mumford sur l'espace des modules des courbes avec des marquages de types Raymond et Neveu-Schwarz. Cela généralise le résultat principal de [\textit{A. A. Voronov}, Funct. Anal. Appl. 22, No. 2, 139--140 (1988; Zbl 0688.14025)]. L'article contient une section de rappels sur les super surfaces de Riemann qui aide grandement à suivre cet article un peu technique.
