Description: Progress in String, Field and Particle Theory, Hardcover by NATO Advanced Study Institute on Progress in String, Field, and Particle Theory (2002 : Cargese, France); Rabinovici, Eliezer (EDT); Harvey, Jeff (EDT); Pioline, Boris (EDT); Windey, Paul (EDT), ISBN 1402013604, ISBN-13 9781402013607, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Papers from a summer 2002 seminar focus on recent progress in the areas of superstring theory, quantum gravity, and the theory of elementary particles, looking at domains such as duality between gravity and gauge interactions, string field theory, tachydon condensation, non-commutative field theory, string cosmology, and string phenomenology. Some specific lecture topics include the physics of low-scale string models, the holographic principle, aspects of string motion in time-dependent backgrounds, the geometry of higher- spin gauge fields, and open-string creation by S-branes. Papers by advanced students look at areas such as singular and smooth time- dependent orbifolds, noncommutative multi-solitons, and boundary states in rational CFT. There is no subject index.
