Here's your lifeline! This straightforward guide explains the fundamental principles behind this cutting-edge concept.String Theory Demystified 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.This fast and easy guide offers: Numerous figures to illustrate key conceptsSample problems with worked solutionsCoverage of equations of motion, the energy-momentum tensor, and conserved currentsA discussion of the Randall-Sundrum modelA time-saving approach to performing better on an exam or at workSimple enough for a beginner, but challenging enough for an advanced student, String Theory Demystified is your key to comprehending this theory of everything.
