A New Description of the Superstring
نویسنده
چکیده
This is a review of the new manifestly spacetime-supersymmetric description of the superstring. The new description contains N=2 worldsheet supersymmetry, and is related by a field redefinition to the standard RNS description. It is especially convenient for four-dimensional compactifications since SO(3,1) super-Poincaré invariance can be made manifest. Parts of this work have been done in collaboration with Warren Siegel and Cumrun Vafa.

New Spacetime-Supersymmetric Methods for the Superstring
Talk delivered at \Strings '95" Conference at the Univ. of Southern California In this talk, the new spacetime-supersymmetric description of the superstring is reviewed and some of its applications are described. These applications include the manifestly spacetime-supersymmetric calculation of scattering amplitudes, the construction of a super-Poincar e invariant open superstring eld theory, an...

متن کاملQuantization of the Superstring with Manifest U(5) Super-poincaré Invariance
The superstring is quantized in a manner which manifestly preserves a U(5) subgroup of the (Wick-rotated) ten-dimensional super-Poincaré invariance. This description of the superstring contains critical N=2 worldsheet superconformal invariance and is a natural covariantization of the U(4)-invariant light-cone Green-Schwarz description.
متن کاملOccurrence and description of Dactylogyrus sphyrna Linstow, 1878 (Monogenea: Dactylogyride) on the gills of and Iranian endemic fish Leucisucs persidis Coad, 1981 as a new host
Leuciscus persidis as Iranian endemic fish in Kaftar lake and its headwaters (Mesopotamian subregion, Kor-Neiriz basin and Shadkam river) has been infected with a species of Dactylogyrus sphyrna. Comparison of collected parasites with Euro-Asian subregion showed that the similarity of them is more than their differences, although a little difference between them was observed. In this paper also...
