Synopsis

A systematic introduction to string phenomenology, outlining how string theory is connected to the real world of particle physics.

About the Authors

Luis E. Ibáñez is Professor of Theoretical Physics at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid and member of the Instituto de Física Teórica-UAM/CSIC. One of the world leaders in physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics, he has made important contributions to the construction of the supersymmetric Standard Model and superstring phenomenology.

Angel M. Uranga is Research Professor at the Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas at the Instituto de Física Teórica-UAM/CSIC. He is one of the leading young string theorists working in the construction of models of particle physics, in particular due to his contribution on the use of D-branes to build realistic brane-world models.
