In Lyons, Pemantle and Peres (1995), a martingale change of measure method was developed in order to give an alternative proof of the Kesten–Stigum L log L theorem for single-type branching processes. Later, this method was extended to prove the L log L theorem for multiple- and general multiple-type branching processes in Biggins and Kyprianou (2004), Kurtz et al. (1997), and Lyons (1997). In this paper we extend this method to a class of superdiffusions and establish a Kesten–Stigum L log L type theorem for superdiffusions. One of our main tools is a spine decomposition of superdiffusions, which is a modification of the one in Englander and Kyprianou (2004).
