  • 1. State Univ. of New York, Stony Brook, NY (USA). Inst. for Theoretical Physics

Description

The general conformal coupling of an arbitrary number of scalar multiplets to d = 2, N = 4 supergravity is given. The supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models can be either hyperkahler or quaternionic, unlike in the analogous case in d = 4. This model is the long-ago predicted SU(2) spinning string
