D. Bailin, Alexander Love

Supersymmetric Gauge Field Theory and String Theory

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book provides, in a single volume, an introduction to supersymmetry, supergravity and supersymmetric string theory at a level suitable for postgraduate students in theoretical physics. Prior knowledge of quantum field theory, such as provided by the authors' previous book Introduction To Gauge Field Theory, is assumed. The book as been designed as a textbook for a first course in the subject.
