String Theory Demystified

String Theory Demystified

<p><strong>UNRAVEL the mystery of STRING THEORY</strong></p> <p>Trying to understand string theory but ending up with your brain in knots? Here's your lifeline! This straightforward guide explains the fundamental principles behind this cutting-edge concept.</p> <p><em>String Theory Demystified</em> elucidates the goal of the theory--to combine general relativity and quantum theory into a single, unified framework. You'll learn about classical strings, conformal field theory, quantization, compactification, and T duality. The book covers supersymmetry and superstrings, D-branes, the holographic principle, and cosmology. Hundreds of examples and illustrations make it easy to understand the material, and end-of-chapter quizzes and a final exam help reinforce learning.</p> <p>This fast and easy guide offers:</p> <ul><li><div>Numerous figures to illustrate key concepts </div></li> <li><div>Sample problems with worked solutions </div></li> <li><div>Coverage of equations of motion, the energy-momentum tensor, and conserved currents</div></li> <li><div>A discussion of the Randall-Sundrum model</div></li> <li>A time-saving approach to performing better on an exam or at work</li> </ul> <p>Simple enough for a beginner, but challenging enough for an advanced student, <em>String Theory Demystified</em> is your key to comprehending this theory of everything.</p>
