Introductory lectures on the phenomenology of the minimal supersymmetric Standard Model. The emphasis is on general signatures for supersymmetry and on the motivation for constructing supersymmetric models. These lectures are intended for…
A well known description of superradiance from pointlike collections of many atoms involves the dissipative motion of a large spin. The pertinent ``superradiance master equation'' allows for a formally exact solution which we subject to a…
This course consists of two lectures. In the first lecture I discuss why a non perturbative formulation of QCD is needed, and I show that lattice formulation copes with this need, even if it mainly produces numerical results. In the second…
