Quantumquivering of gravity The search for the unified field theory
Interactions • Electro-Weak Theory • GUT • Quantum field + gravity • Superstring • Experiments
Gravitational • General theory of relativity • A. Einstein 1916 • Warping of space time • Symmetry between observations
Electromagnetic • J. C. Maxwell 1865 • Quantum electrodynamics • Renormalization • Gauge symmetry
Weak • Nuclear force • B-decay • Breaking of symmetry
Strong • Quantum chromodynamics 1970s • Color RGB • M. Gell’Mann • The Eightfold Way • Quarks • Symmetry
Interactions • Gravitational • Electromagnetic • Weak • Strong
Electro-Weak Theory • S. Weinberg, A. Salam, S. Glashow 1968 • Symmetry electron neutrino • G. T’ Hooft – renormalizable • P. Higgs – higgs boson mass
GUT • H. Georgi, S. Glashow 1974 • Prediction quark electron decay • Supersymmetry
Quantum Mechanics + Gravity • Planck length
Superstring Theory • G. Chews S-Matrix theory • No renormalization • Beta function • Y. Nambu 1970 strings • 10 dimensions • Largest symmetry
Colliders • LHC (Large Hadron Collider) • LEP
