Moduli Corrections to Gravitational Couplings from String loops

arXiv:hep-th/9203071 · doi:10.1016/0370-2693(92)90009-S

Abstract

We study moduli dependent threshold corrections to gravitational couplings in the case of the heterotic string compactified on a symmetric orbifold, for untwisted moduli, extending previous analysis on gauge couplings. Like in the gauge case, the contribution comes entirely from the spacetime sector. As a byproduct, this calculation provides a simple derivation of the trace anomaly coefficients for the different fields coupled to gravity.
