Basic Concepts of String Theory (Hardcover, 2013): Ralph Blumenhagen, Dieter Lust, Stefan Theisen Basic Concepts of String Theory (Hardcover, 2013)
Ralph Blumenhagen, Dieter Lust, Stefan Theisen
R2,588 Discovery Miles 25 880 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

The purpose of this book is to thoroughly prepare the reader for research in string theory at an intermediate level. As such it is not a compendium of results but intended as textbook in the sense that most of the material is organized in a pedagogical and self-contained fashion.
Beyond the basics, a number of more advanced topics are introduced, such as conformal field theory, superstrings and string dualities - the text does not cover applications to black hole physics and cosmology, nor strings theory at finite temperatures.
End-of-chapter references have been added to guide the reader wishing to pursue further studies or to start research in well-defined topics covered by this book."

Lectures on String Theory (Paperback, 1989 ed.): Dieter Lust, Stefan Theisen Lectures on String Theory (Paperback, 1989 ed.)
Dieter Lust, Stefan Theisen
R2,468 Discovery Miles 24 680 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This book provides a self-contained introduction to string theory, at present one of the most exciting and fastest-growing areas in theoretical high-energy physics. Pedagogical in character, it introduces modern techniques and concepts, such as conformal and superconformal field theory, Kac-Moody algebras, etc., stressing their relevance and application to string theory rather than the formal aspects. The reader is led from a basic discussion of the classical bosonic string to the construction of four-dimensional heterotic string models, an area of current research. The so-called covariant lattice construction is discussed in detail. Being conceptually very simple, the book serves to exemplify the relevant features of other methods of arriving at four-dimensional string theories. It is also shown how one derives a low-energy field theory from string theory, thereby making contact with conventional point-particle physics.

Black Hole Information and Thermodynamics (Paperback, 1st ed. 2019): Dieter Lust, Ward Vleeshouwers Black Hole Information and Thermodynamics (Paperback, 1st ed. 2019)

Based on Prof. Lust's Masters course at the University of Munich, this book begins with a short introduction to general relativity. It then presents black hole solutions, and discusses Penrose diagrams, black hole thermodynamics and entropy, the Unruh effect, Hawking radiation, the black hole information problem, black holes in supergravity and string theory, the black hole microstate counting in string theory, asymptotic symmetries in general relativity, and a particular quantum model for black holes. The book offers an up-to-date summary of all the pertinent questions in this highly active field of physics, and is ideal reading for graduate students and young researchers.

Die Grundlagen der theoretischen Physik in einem Band - das bietet Ihnen das vorliegende Buch. Sechs in Forschung und Lehre erfahrene Autoren aus Deutschland und OEsterreich stellen die vier grossen Gebiete Mechanik, Elektrodynamik, Quantenmechanik sowie Thermodynamik und Statistische Physik dar. Die besondere Starke dieses Buches liegt darin, dass es in vielfaltigen Querverweisen die inneren Zusammenhange zwischen diesen Gebieten zeigt. Die Kapitel sind sorgfaltig aufeinander abgestimmt, beziehen sich aufeinander, verwenden eine moeglichst einheitliche Notation und lassen diese vier Gebiete nicht nur jedes fur sich entstehen, sondern vermitteln auch einen zusammenhangenden UEberblick uber die gesamte Grundlage der theoretischen Physik. UEbersichtlich und grafisch ansprechend gegliedert, mit uber 500 klaren und verstandlichen Abbildungen versehen, bieten alle Kapitel ausfuhrlich vorgerechnete Beispiele, begleitet von insgesamt fast 700 Verstandnisfragen, Ausblicken in weiterfuhrende UEberlegungen sowie von mehr als 300 UEbungsaufgaben mit kommentierten Loesungen. Der Inhalt des Buchs orientiert sich an den Bachelor- und Masterstudiengangen grosser Universitaten in Deutschland, OEsterreich und der Schweiz und deckt den behandelten Stoff moeglichst umfassend ab. Die langjahrige und vielfach hervorragend bewertete Lehrerfahrung der Autoren ist hier in einem Buch kondensiert, das Sie nicht nur durch Ihr gesamtes Bachelor-Studium, sondern weit in Ihr Masterstudium hinein begleiten wird. Dieses Werk wurde erganzt um mathematische Beitrage der beliebten Bestseller-Autoren Florian Modler und Martin Kreh.
