Abstract or Description

We formulate a new twistor-type contour integral expression for massless fields which displays manifest conformal covariance. Compact complex Minkowski space is treated as a quadric hypersurface in CP5. When a point at infinity is chosen to break conformal invariance, our formula can be reduced to the standard twistor contour integral formula due to Penrose.
