## Abstract I survey the recent construction of a family of new twistor string theories which are free from world‐sheet anomalies and give the space‐time spectra of Einstein supergravities, with second order field equations instead of the higher derivative conformal supergravities that arose from e

It is shown that Einstein-Weyl (EW) equations in 2+1 dimensions contain the dispersionless Kadomtsev-Petviashvili (dKP) equation as a special case: if an EW structure admits a constantweighted vector then it is locally given by h = dy 2 -4 dx dt -4u dt 2 , Ξ½ = -4u x dt, where u = u(x, y, t) satisfie
