Roman Jackiw: 80th Birthday Festschrift

Professor Roman Jackiw is a theoretical physicist renowned for his many fundamental contributions and discoveries in quantum and classical field theories, ranging from high energy physics and gravitation to condensed matter and the physics of fluids. Among his major achievements is the establishment of the presence of the famous Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomalies in quantum field theory, a discovery with far-reaching implications for the structure of the Standard Model of particle physics and all attempts to go beyond it. Other important contributions, among many, that one may mention here are the topological mass term in gravity and gauge theories, and the fractionalization of fermion number and c...

History of Original Ideas and Basic Discoveries in Particle Physics

The International Conference on the History of Original Ideas and Basic Discoveries, held at the "Ettore Majorana" Centre for Scientific Culture in Erice, Sicily, July 27-August 4, 1994, brought together sixty of the leading scientists including many Nobel Laureates in high energy physics, principal contributors in other fields of physics such as high Tc superconductivity, particle accelerators and detector instrumentation, and thirty-six talented younger physicists selected from candidates throughout the world. The scientific program, including 49 lectures and a discussion session on the "Status and Future Directions in High Energy Physics" was inspired by the conference theme: The key expe...

Quantum Chromodynamics And Color Confinement (Confinement 2000) - Proceedings Of The International Symposium

The quark confinement mechanism is one of the most difficult problems in particle physics, and is listed as the 7 difficult mathematical problems of the new millennium. The first person who first solves this problem will be awarded a prize of US$ 1 Million by Cray Mathematics Institute. This volume is useful for the systematic understanding of quark confinement and nonperturbative aspects of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) from the wide viewpoints of mathematical physics, lattice QCD physics and quark-hadron physics. It covers the current studies of nonperturbative QCD: quark confinement mechanism; topologies in QCD (instantons, monopoles and vortices); BRS quartet mechanism for color confinement; lattice QCD calculations for quarks, gluons and hadrons; dynamical chiral symmetry breaking and hadrons.

Superinsulators, Bose Metals And High-tc Superconductors: The Quantum Physics Of Emergent Magnetic Monopoles

In 1931 Dirac showed that topologically quantized single magnetic charges, magnetic monopoles, while classically forbidden in a gauge theory, are allowed alongside electric charges in a quantum theory of electromagnetism. Such topological magnetic excitations are indeed admitted in the spectrum of most grand unified field theories of elementary interactions. Despite 40 years of dedicated search efforts, nonetheless, they have never shown up in any experiment. This, however, does not preclude the possibility of topological magnetic monopoles being realized as excitations in emergent condensed matter states, where they would be much lighter and easier to create.This book is about the physical ...

Electroweak Symmetry Breaking - Proceedings Of The International Workshop

The papers presented here focus on new developments in both theoretical and phenomenological aspects of standard theory, with an emphasis on understanding of the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking. This workshop covers the formal aspects and the related new models of electroweak symmetry breaking and the present status of the Standard Model.

The Nature of Science Today-Denial of THE Truth "Forms" as Reality

Focuses upon ''the greater consciousness'' of persons who have as their ''Ideal self'' ''the will to truthfulness'' and correlates that will with Christian men (and women) as opposed to ''Natural Man,'' whose will is determined by some other, probably unconscious, ''Ideal self.'' A great failure scientists have committed today is their failure to ''be truthful'' or to will the identity of science to be that of truth ''forms.'' Only through the will to have true verbal and mathematical descriptions of reality will we be able to achieve the ''greater consciousness'' of the ''unified field.'' Dr. Frank Elbert Davis, III, labels false fantasies as false superegos, and labels true beliefs as true...
