The Attractor Mechanism
Springer 2010; US$ 239.99This book is based upon lectures presented in June 2007 at the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati School on Attractor Mechanism, directed by Stefano Bellucci. The symposium included such prestigious lecturers as S. Ferrara, M. Gunaydin, P. Levay, and T. Mohaupt. All lectures were given at a pedagogical, introductory level, which is reflected in... more...
Harmonic Superspace
Cambridge University Press 2001; US$ 57.00Inspired by exciting developments in superstring theory, this is the first pedagogical and comprehensive introduction to the harmonic superspace method in extended supersymmetry. The authors (credited with inventing the technique) are recognised as world experts on the subject and present a clear account of its formalism and applications. more...
Introduction to Supersymmetry
Cambridge University Press 1986; US$ 38.00Just as ordinary symmetries relate various forms of matter to each other, and various basic forces to each other, so the novel concept of supersymmetry relates (Fermi) matter to (Bose) force. It is the aim of this book to provide a brief introductory desc more...
Modern Supersymmetry
OUP Oxford 2005; US$ 64.99The book begins with a brief review of supersymmetry, and the construction of the minimal supersymmetric standard model and approaches to supersymmetry breaking. General non-perturbative methods are also reviewed leading to the development of holomorphy and the Affleck-Dine-Seiberg superpotential as powerful tools for analysing supersymmetric theories.... more...
Nature's Blueprint
HarperCollins 2009; US$ 19.99The first accessible book on a theory of physics that explains the relationship between the particles and forces that make up our universe. For decades, physicists have been fascinated with the possibility that two seemingly independent aspects of our world?matter and force?may in fact be intimately connected and inseparable facets of nature.... more...
The Noether Theorems
Springer 2010; US$ 79.99In 1915 and 1916 Emmy Noether was asked by Felix Klein and David Hilbert to assist them in understanding issues involved in any attempt to formulate a general theory of relativity, in particular the new ideas of Einstein. She was consulted particularly over the difficult issue of the form a law of conservation of energy could take in the new theory,... more...
Quantum Theory And Symmetries, Proceedings Of The 3rd International Symposium
World Scientific Publishing Company 2004; US$ 153.00The book contains the text of lectures given at the third of a series of biennial symposia in mathematical physics held in odd-numbered years. The subject of the symposium is the frontiers of mathematical physics. It deals with quantum phenomena and includes topics such as string theory and quantum gravity, particle physics and field theory, non-communative... more...
Searching For The Superworld
World Scientific Publishing Company 2007; US$ 166.40The Superworld is a subject of formidable interest for the immediate future of subnuclear physics to which Zichichi has contributed with a series of important papers of phenomenological and theoretical nature. These papers represent a must-have collection, not only for their originality but also for their complete analysis of expected scenarios... more...
Supersymmetric Gravity and Black Holes
Springer 2012; US$ 209.99This book is based upon lectures presented in the summer of 2009 at the INFN-Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati School on Attractor Mechanism, directed by Stefano Bellucci. The symposium included such prestigious lecturers as S. Ferrara, G. Dall'Agata, J.F. Morales, J. Simón and M. Trigiante. All lectures were given at a pedagogical, introductory... more...
Supersymmetric World, The
World Scientific Publishing Company 2000; US$ 93.60The story of the discovery of supersymmetry is a fascinating one, unlike that of any other major development in the history of science. This engaging book presents a view of the process, mainly in the words of people who participated. It combines anecdotal descriptions and personal reminiscences with more technical accounts of the trailblazers, covering... more...
