On Heterotic/Type I Duality in d=8

arXiv:hep-th/9812154 · doi:10.1007/BFb0104256

Abstract

We discuss heterotic corrections to quartic internal U(1) gauge couplings and check duality by calculating one-loop open string diagrams and identifying the D-instanton sum in the dual type I picture. We also compute SO(8)^4 threshold corrections and finally R^2 corrections in type I theory.
