Type I Supergravity Effective Action from Pure Spinor Formalism

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-02-23 v3

Abstract

Using the pure spinor formalism, we compute the tree-level correlation functions for three strings, one closed and two open, in N=1 D=10 superspace. Expanding the superfields in components, the respective terms of the effective action for the type I supergravity are obtained. All terms found agree with the effective action known in the literature. This result gives one more consistency test for the pure spinor formalism.
