Are the String and Einstein Frames Equivalent
arXiv:gr-qc/0111031 · doi:10.1142/S0217732302006606
Abstract
The low energy physics as predicted by strings can be expressed in two (conformally related) different variables, usually called {\em frames}. The problem is raised as to whether it is physically possible in some situations to tell one from the other.
