We investigate the concept of superconformal symmetry in six dimensions,applied to the interacting theory of (2,0) tensor multiplets and self-dualstrings. The action of a superconformal transformation on the superspacecoordinates is found, both from a six-dimensional perspective and by using asuperspace with eight bosonic and four fermionic dimensions. The transformationlaws for all fields in the theory are derived, as well as general expressionsfor the transformation of on-shell superfields. Superconformal invariance isshown for the interaction of a self-dual string with a background consisting ofon-shell tensor multiplet fields, and we also find an interesting relationshipbetween the requirements of superconformal invariance and those of a localfermionic kappa-symmetry. Finally, we try to construct a superspace analogue ofthe Poincare dual to the string world-sheet and consider its properties undersuperconformal transformations.Comment: 31 pages, LaTeX. v2: clarifications and minor correction
