Superspace Low-Energy Equations of Motion for 4D Type II Superstring

We derive the torsion constraints and the equations of motion of four-dimensional Type II supergravity in superspace. This is achieved by coupling the four-dimensional compactified Type II Berkovits' superstring to an N=2 curved background and requiring that the sigma-model has superconformal invariance at tree-level. We compute this in a manifestly 4D N=2 supersymmetric way. The constraints break the target conformal and SU(2) invariances and the dilaton will be a conformal, $SU(2)times U(1)$ compensator. For Type II superstring in four dimensions, worldsheet supersymmetry requires two different compensators. One type is described by chiral and anti-chiral superfields. This compensator can be identified with a vector multiplet. The other Type II compensator is described by twist-chiral and twist-anti-chiral superfields and can be identified with a tensor hypermultiplet. Also, the superconformal invariance at tree-level selects a particular gauge, where the matter is fixed, but not the compensators. The equations of motion are derived in this gauge
