Lecture Notes, Summer School on Effective Theories and Fundamental Interactions, Erice, July 1996. I describe the construction of effective field theories for equilibrium high-temperature plasma of elementary particles.
The broad connections between cosmology and collider physics, particularly precision measurements at the high-energy frontier, are discussed. These proceedings summarize a colloquium delivered to a general audience of experimental and…
The Asia-Europe-Pacific School of High-Energy Physics is intended to give young physicists an introduction to the theoretical aspects of recent advances in elementary particle physics. These proceedings contain lecture notes on quantum…
This review is based on lectures given at the 1992 Trieste Spring School on String Theory and Quantum Gravity and at the 1992 TASI Summer School in Boulder, Colorado.
During the last three decades, there has been a growing realization among physicists and cosmologists that the relation between particle physics and cosmology may constitute yet another successful example of the unity of science. However,…
I discuss especially my summer with Willy Fowler at Kellogg Radiation in 1951, where I did my "triple-alpha" work. I also go back even earlier to Arthur Eddington and Hans Bethe. I also mention the 1953 summer school in Ann Arbor.
Cosmoparticle physics is the natural result of development of mutual relationship between cosmology and particle physics. Its prospects offer the way to study the theory of everything and the true history of the Universe, based on it, in…
Lectures by the author at the 1986 Cargese summer school modestly corrected and uploaded for greater accessibility. Some of the author's views on the quantum mechanics of cosmology have changed from those presented here but may still be of…
Particles have tremendous potential as astronomical messengers, and conversely, studying the universe as a whole also teaches us about particle physics. This thesis encompasses both of these research directions. Many models predict a…
Lecture notes for a 'Part III' course 'Black Holes' given in DAMTP, Cambridge. The course covers some of the developments in Black Hole physics of the 1960s and 1970s.
These are notes of lectures on spinning particles and the worldline formalism originally given by Olindo Corradini and Christian Schubert at the School on Spinning Particles in Quantum Field Theory: Worldline Formalism, Higher Spins, and…
This is a Concluding Talk, not a Summary of the FPCP 2011 Conference. I will first make some comments on the status and the prospects of particle physics and then review some of the highlights that particularly impressed me at this…
Lectures given at the International School of Subnuclear Physics: 37th Course: Basics and Highlights of Fundamental Physics, Erice, Italy, 29 Aug - 7 Sep 1999.
A personal perspective on the future challenges of research in particle physics is presented with emphasis on the role of DIS physics in this endeavour.
I present a concise review of where we stand in particle physics today. First, I will discuss the status of the Standard Model, its open problems and the expected answers from the LHC. Then I will briefly review the avenues for New Physics…
This is a brief review paper summarizing talks at the NATO school on Complexity and Large Deviations in Geilo, Norway, 2001.
An outline is sketched, of applications of the ideas and the mathematical methods presented at the 19th symposium of the Hellenic Nuclear Physics Society (HNPS) in Thessaloniki, May 2010
This is a written version of the review talk given at the meeting on "Interface of Gravitational and Quantum Realms" at IUCAA, Pune during December 2001. The talk reviewed the recent work of Martin Bojowald on Loop Quantum Cosmology.
