Particles And Fields - Proceedings Of The Ixth Jorge Andre Swieca Summer School

This work surveys some of the most interesting research topics in theoretical physics, such as duality theory, quantum field theory in curved space-time, supersymmetry and the standard model, differential geometry and its applications in physics, and cosmic ray physics.

This book contains the proceedings of the IXth Jorge André Swieca Summer School — Particles and Fields — held at Campos do Jordao in February 1997.It surveys some of the most interesting research topics in theoretical physics, like duality theory, quantum field theory in curved space-time, supersymmetry and the standard model, differential geometry and its applications in physics and cosmic ray physics.
