Product Description: Proceedings of the fourth annual superstring workshop held March 1990 at Texas A&M University. In addition to the more familiar paths trod by string theorists, this year's workshop reflects new interest in exactly-soluble models of quantum gravity in two dimensions...read more

Product Description: These lectures give an elementary introduction to the important recent developments of the applications of N=1 supergravity to the construction of unified models of elementary particle interactions. Topics covered include couplings of supergravity with matter, spontaneous symmetry breaking and the super-higgs effect, construction of supergravity unified models, and the phenomenon of Su(2) x U(1) electroweak-symmetry breaking by supergravity...read more
