E-Books →String Theory and the Real WorldThe Visible Sector, 2nd Edition

Founded on three decades of research, this second edition covers the Planck scale, Higgs physics, supersymmetry and supersymmetry breaking, the Hierarchy problem, dark matter, inflation, hidden sectors, future colliders, testing theories in physics, possible limits to understanding, and more.
Key Features
Written by a world-leading authority on compactified string theoryProvides simple and informative explanations of many topicsAccessible to both physicists and general readers interested in string theoryProvides glimpses of future experiments that may provide strong tests of the theory, and experiments that could potentially detect dark matterThe second edition includes new material from compactified M-theory identifying the physical inflaton, explaining the matter asymmetry, mass-energy scales of particle physics and cosmology, cosmological histories, dark matter candidates, supersymmetry breaking, future colliders and possible tests
