Abstract

The Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond type II closed superstring is quantized in the BRST hamiltonian formalism in the presence of arbitrary background fields. Batalin, Fradkin and Vilkovisky technique is employed in order to construct the BRST charge. The background field equations of motion are derived from the requirement of the nilpotency of the quantum BRST charge.
