The classical pure spinor version of the heterotic superstring in asupergravity and super Yang-Mills background is considered. We obtain the BRSTtransformations of the world-sheet fields. They are consistent with theconstraints obtained from the nilpotence of the BSRT charge and theholomorphicity of the BRST current.Comment: References adde
