This book presents a string-theoretic approach to new ideas in
particle physics, also known as Physics Beyond the Standard Model,
and to cosmology. The concept of Naturalness and its apparent
violation by the low electroweak scale and the small cosmological
constant is emphasized. It is shown that string theory, through its
multitude of solutions, known as the landscape, offers a partial
resolution to these naturalness problems as well as suggesting more
speculative possibilities like that of a multiverse. The book is
based on a one-semester course, as such, it has a pedagogical
approach, is self-contained and includes many exercises with
solutions. Notably, the basics of string theory are introduced as
part of the lectures. These notes are aimed at graduate students
with a solid background in quantum field theory, as well as at
young researchers from theoretical particle physics to mathematical
physics. This text also benefits students who are in the process of
studying string theory at a deeper level. In this case, the volume
serves as additional reading beyond a formal string theory course.
