On the pure spinor heterotic superstring b ghost

Open full text 3 citations

Abstract

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