Abstract
We investigate the open fermion string (corresponding to the Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond model) by use of Polyakov's approach to the quantization problem. Supersymmetric boundary conditions on various fields are derived, and the boundary terms due to the superconformal anomaly are computed. It turns out that “supersymmetrization” of one-dimensional boundary terms induces two-dimensional terms.
