Over the past few years there has been a large inflow of researchers in fundamental physics from across the world into the UK. The aim of the proposal is to provide a stimulating environment for cross fertilization between the three main areas of fundamental physics: string theory, gravity and quantum field theory. The previous FPUK meetings, in November 2007 and 2008, were held at King's College London and were widely regarded to be a success. We wish to build on this and organize a third meeting in November 2009, this time in Trinity College, Cambridge. The following speakers have tentatively agreed to talk:Bobby Acharya (ICTP)Nick Dorey (Cambridge) Anne Green (Nottingham) Mukund Rangamani (Durham) Gabriele Travaglini (Swansea) One further speaker's slot will be kept open to allow for current developments.The meeting will be organized to allow for a good deal of interaction surrounding a selected number of talks. The aim of the talks will be to provide a pedagogical synopsis of the current 'hot' research topics. However there will also be significant periods of informal discussion, including both an active discussion centered on the talks as well as time for private discussions. As originally envisioned this meeting is the third in what is planned to be a regular, annual, series of meetings. The overall aim of these meetings will be to create dynamic and informal research environment from which all UK researchers will benefit.

在过去的几年里，来自世界各地的基础物理研究人员大量涌入英国。该提案的目的是为基础物理学的三个主要领域：弦理论、引力和量子场论之间的交叉施肥提供一个刺激的环境。2007年11月和2008年的FPUK会议在伦敦国王学院举行，被广泛认为是成功的。我们希望以此为基础，于2009年11月在剑桥的Trinity学院举办第三次会议。以下发言者已初步同意发言：Bobby Acharya（国际理论物理中心）Nick Dorey（剑桥）Anne绿色（诺丁汉）Mukund Rangamani（达勒姆）Gabriele Travaglini（斯旺西）将保留另一个发言者的名额，以考虑到当前的事态发展。讲座的目的是提供一个当前“热门”研究课题的教学大纲。然而，也将有重要的非正式讨论时间，包括以会谈为中心的积极讨论以及私人讨论时间。正如最初设想的那样，这次会议是计划举行的一系列定期年度会议中的第三次会议。这些会议的总体目标将是创造一个充满活力和非正式的研究环境，所有英国研究人员都将从中受益。
