## TL;DR

This paper introduces a superfield formalism to explore the potential construction of scalar versions of supergravity theories in eleven and ten dimensions, addressing the challenge of the unknown full off-shell formulations.

## Contribution

It proposes a novel superfield framework as a foundational and experimental approach to develop scalar supergravity theories in higher dimensions.

## Key findings

- Superfield formalism established for higher-dimensional supergravity
- Potential pathways for scalar supergravity theories identified
- Framework serves as a basis for future theoretical development

## Abstract

As the full off-shell theories of supergravity in the important dimensions of eleven and ten dimensions are currently unknown, we introduce a superfield formalism as a foundation and experimental laboratory to explore the possibility that the scalar versions of the higher dimensional supergravitation theory can be constructed.
