On the Pure Spinor Heterotic Superstring $b$ Ghost

High Energy Physics - Theory 2016-05-04 v1

Abstract

A simplified pure spinor superstring bb ghost in a curved heterotic background was constructed recently. The bb ghost is a composite operator and it is not holomorphic. However, it satisfies ˉb=[Q,Ω]\bar\partial b = [ Q , \Omega ], where QQ is the BRST charge. In this paper, we find a possible Ω\Omega.
