Experimental contributors to the field of Superconducting Materials share their informal views on the subject.

I review some aspects of supersymmetric grand unification and emphasize a recent development in the area of gauge coupling unification.

Some conceptual aspects of the quantum string field psychophysics are clarified.

Cosmic strings are predicted by many field-theory models, and may have been formed at a symmetry-breaking transition early in the history of the universe, such as that associated with grand unification. They could have important…

I present a quick overview of the current status of Chiral perturbation theory in the meson sector. To illustrate the successes and some problems in the description of the phenomenology, I focus on a few selected examples that are relevant…

A brief review of the latest developments in the spectroscopy of heavy quarks is presented. The current status of the recently `discovered' pentaquarks is also discussed.

We review the status of duality symmetries in superstring theories. These discrete symmetries mark the striking differences between theories of pointlike objects and theories of extended objects. They prove to be very helpful in…

In the mid eighties string phenomenology started. Since then, its main objective, the search of the standard model, has not been accomplished yet. In this talk, on the ocassion of the 2nd International Conference on String Phenomenology in…

In the past three years our views on how the standard model of particle physics could be embedded into string theory have dramatically changed. The heterotic string is no longer the only possibility for such an embedding and other…

The mathematically rigorous definition and construction of the amplitudes in superstring theory is still an open problem. Here, we describe some recent development in the construction of the superstring measures in $g=3,4$ and we point out…

This is an invited contribution to the Special Issue of "Foundations of Physics" titled "Forty Years Of String Theory: Reflecting On the Foundations". I have been asked to assess string theory as an outsider, and to compare it with the…

We present investigations of lens phenomenological properties of cosmic strings for deep galaxy surveys. General results that have obtained for lineic energy distribution are presented first. We stress that generically the local convergence…

Fundamental spin physics has made striking progresses in the last years; new ideas, experiments and data interpretations have been proposed and keep emerging. A review of some of the most important issues in the spin structure of nucleons…

In these lectures I review the progress made over the last few years in the subject of string and string-inspired phenomenology. I take a practical approach, thereby concentrating more on explicit examples rather than on formal…

This talk deals with the old problem of formulatingn a covariant quantum theory of superstrings, ``covariant'' here meaning having manifest Lorentz symmetry and supersymmetry. The advantages and disadvantages of several quantization methods…

Despite the lack of experimental confirmation and of unambiguous theoretical proof, superstring theory has long been considered by many the only consistent quantized theory of gravity and the unique viable framework for the unification of…

In these proceedings for the First School on Field Theory and Gravitation (Vit\'oria, Brasil), a brief introduction is given to superstring theory and its duality symmetries. This introduction is intended for beginning graduate students…

The current status of the theoretical and observational cosmology is reviewed.

I summarize recent devlopments in supersymmetry scenarios which leave some or all gauginos light. The emphasis is on experimental and phenomenological progress in the past year.

This is a brief description of what has been accomplished and what remains to be done in the construction of a nonperturbative formulation of "The Theory Formerly Known as String". It is culled from two short talks given by the author at…
