Abstract:

The relation between loop expansion parameters gop for open strings and gcl for closed strings is explicitly determined in the type I superstring with SO(N) gauge group (N=32 for the anomaly cancellation). This is translated to the relation between the gauge coupling constant g YM and the gravitational coupling constant κ in the effective field theory Lagrangian. It is found that the compactification on a torus with arbitrary shape and size does not affect the relation.
