I am confused by the fact that there is a background gauge field put in when talking of the T-duality of open strings with chan-paton factors. Since string theory is a first...

Does anyone know of a painless introduction of Branes from the viewpoint of string theory?

Hi, Is there a known analytic expression for Grassmann integrals of the kind \int d\psi d\bar{\psi} \exp ( - (\bar{\psi} M \psi)^2 ) or even more general four-fermion...

Any attempt, like Yilmaz's, to localize the classical vacuum energy of the pure gravity field violates the local equivalence principle and is in contradiction with...

Hello to all: I wanted to let you know about my new paper just posted at http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/0508257, titled Magnetic Monopoles and Duality Symmetry Breaking in...

Minkowski claimed scientific priority for a great, new, geometric theory of relativity at the Cologne lecture of 1908, based largely on the work of Henri Poincaré. Poincaré...

Fundamental physical ideas should not only be sound in details but also sensible conceptually. General relativity says that non-gravitational physical processes occur on the...

Hope this isn't a dumb request. I am an undergraduate student and in one of the experimental subjects I was asked to choose an interesting experiment. The criteria were that...

Dear all, I'm a little confused by The Background Field Method, as presented in Section 16.6 of Peskin and Shroeder. The gauge field splitting (16.93) to the background and...
