A note on chiral fermions and heterotic strings

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-28 v2

Abstract

An off-shell manifestly (8,0) worldsheet supersymmetric formulation of a multiplet describing physical chiral fermions is given. The multiplet can be used to complete the doubly supersymmetric (twistor-like) action for the heterotic string. Correction of technical errors.
