The Kalb–Ramond field is an antisymmetric two-form background coupled to the oriented worldsheet area element. Its gauge-invariant field strength is the three-form .
The H-field is the three-form field strength of a Kalb–Ramond field. It obeys the Bianchi identity and contributes quadratically to the leading string background equations.

The Kalb-Ramond field is a theoretical construct in physics, specifically in the context of string theory and higher-dimensional field theories. It is a type of antisymmetric tensor field, typically denoted as \( B_{\mu\nu} \), where the indices \( \mu \) and \( \nu \) represent spacetime dimensions.
