Abstract

In this letter we establish that the supersymmetric R-2 effective action for the heterotic string, obtained from the supersymmetrisation of the Lorentz Chern-Simons term, is to order alpha ' equivalent modulo field redefinitions to heterotic string effective actions computed by different methods.
