(1,0) supergravity and the heterotic string

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. D; (United States)
; ;
The most general super-Weyl-invariant theory of matter coupled to supergravity is constructed in (1,0) superspace. This theory is shown to correspond to the heterotic string. A complete superfield formulation of supergravity, world-sheet gauge invariance, super-Weyl invariance, and string actions in (1,0) superspace is presented.
