Research in theoretical physics will be carried out, focussing onfoundational aspects of string theory. String theory is themost promising candidate for a consistent description of quantummechanics and gravity, and has advanced rapidly in recent years. Research will particularly center around understanding the decayof unstable systems in string theory, as well as obtaining a bettertheory of black holes. Both questions involve fundamental aspectsof string theory and so are important to the development of the subject.

将进行理论物理学的研究，重点是弦理论的基础方面。 弦理论是量子力学和引力的一致描述的最有希望的候选者，近年来发展迅速。研究将特别集中在理解弦论中不稳定系统的衰变，以及获得更好的黑洞理论。 这两个问题都涉及弦理论的基本方面，因此对学科的发展很重要。
