Supersymmetry and Strings in Particle Physics

这个项目将研究超对称性和超引力的某些方面，特别是在弦和超弦上的应用。它将继续通过所谓的超图方法来研究量子性质。超对称性和超重力是描述基本粒子相互作用力的很有前途的方法。超弦是扩展的物体，据推测，其振动是我们所看到的点基本粒子的现象。超弦图像可能会导致一个令人满意的引力和所有其他力的量子理论。

This project will study certain aspects of supersymmetry and supergravity, with particular applications to strings and superstrings. It will continue investigation of quantum properties by means of so-called supergraph methods. Supersymmetry and supergravity are promising approaches to the description of the forces exerted by elementary particles on one another. Superstrings are extended objects whose vibrations, it is speculated, are the phenomena we see as point elementary particles. The superstring picture may lead to a satisfactory quantum theory of gravity and all other forces.
