On the normalization of Killing vectors and energy conservation in two-dimensional gravity

We explicitly show that, in the context of a recently proposed 2D dilaton gravity theory, energy conservation requires the ``natural'' Killing vector to have, asymptotically, an unusual normalization. The Hawking temperature $T_H$ is then calculated according to this prescription.Comment: 7 pages, Latex, no figure

Free Fields for Chiral 2D Dilaton Gravity

We give an explicit canonical transformation which transforms a generic chiral 2D dilaton gravity model into a free field theory.Comment: LaTeX file, 4 pages, to appear in Phys. Rev.
