Research in Gravitation and Quantum Field Theory

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

Research will be carried out at the extremely active frontiers of modern quantum gravity, including supergravity, strings and their successors, as well as cosmology, to search for their underlying laws. The present period is one of unprecedented activity in the pursuit of the fundamentals of the Universe, spurred by the current dramatic results of space- and terrestrially-based observational platforms in charting its outer limits. The emerging picture simultaneously provides amazing data and fundamental paradoxes. One objective of this project is to provide explanations that foster a coherent picture of the cosmos.
