Research in Theoretical Elementary Particle Physics

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Research in theoretical physics will include work on strings and superstrings, wormholes, tests of the standard electroweak model in high energy e+e- collisions, solitons, and topics at the interface between cosmology and particle physics. The problems to be studied include several which are at the forefront of elementary particle theory and cosmology, such as the question of whether superstrings, which are being advanced as a promising model of the physics of elementary particles, are fundamental or arise from some deeper underlying dynamics.
