With the standard string oscillator algebra and G0​=∑m​αm​⋅ψ−m​, pairing positive and negative modes gives G02​=α02​/2+∑m>0​(α−m​⋅αm​+mψ−m​⋅ψm​). This is the vacuum-normal-ordered Ramond sector generator L0R​, so {G0​,G0​}=2L0R​. Rescaling the superconformal current rescales its square quadratically; its normalization cannot be ignored when comparing it with a fixed Virasoro generator.
