We calculate the effective action for nonabelian gauge bosons up to quartic order using WZW-like open superstring field theory. After including level zero and level one contributions, we obtain with 75% accuracy the Yang-Mills quartic term. We then prove that the complete effective action reproduces the exact Yang-Mills quartic term by analytically performing a summation over the intermediate massive states.

Yang-Mills Theory From Super Moduli Space
hep-th 2025-01 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

A spinning superparticle world-line path integral pulled back to super moduli space yields a space-time action that is Yang-Mills theory up to boundary terms and non-local corrections.
