Searching for String Theories of the Standard Model

نویسنده

  • DAVID BAILIN
چکیده

We briefly review attempts to construct string theories that yield the standard model, concentrating on models with a geometric interpretation. Calabi-Yau compactifications are discussed in the context of both the weakly coupled heterotic string and the strongly coupled version, heterotic M-theory. Similarly, we consider orbifold compactifications of weakly coupled heterotic theory and of Type II theories in the presence of D-branes. The latter allows a “bottom-up” construction that so far seems the most natural and direct route to the standard model.

DEVELOPMENT IN STRING THEORY

The string theory is a fast moving subject, both physics wise and in the respect of mathematics. In order to keep up with the discipline it is important to move with new ideas which are being stressed. Here I wish to give extracts from new papers of ideas which I have recently found interesting. There are six papers which are involved: I ."Strings formulated directly in 4 dimensions " A. N...

A Mechanical Model and its Experimental Verification for a Water Injection String in a Highly Deviated Well

Water injection strings in highly deviated wells are subjected to complex forces on the string bore. In this work, a mechanical model is developed for these forces and for those on downhole tools. On the basis of this model, and taking account of the characteristics of the string in different working conditions, a temperature field model and a pressure field model are introduced, and a statical...

Tachyons today

Much of my work as a Pappalardo Fellow has involved some puzzles that arise in certain string theories because of a very peculiar type of particle, called a tachyon. Here I’ll explain what a tachyon is and why it’s important to solve these puzzles. Along the way we’ll compare and contrast string theories with conventional particle theories. I should first clarify that when I say “theory” here I...

Searching for the Standard Model in the String Landscape : SUSY GUTs

The Standard Model is the theory describing all observational data from the highest energies to the largest distances. [There is however one caveat; additional forms of energy, not part of the Standard Model, known as dark matter and dark energy must be included in order to describe the universe at galactic scales and larger.] High energies refers to physics at the highest energy particle accel...

محاسبه ساختار ستاره کوارکی

In this paper, we have considered that the strange-star consists of quark matter from its center to surface. For quark matter, we have used two models, the MIT bag model and string-flip like model. In the bag model, the energy of the system has been considered the kinetic energy of the particles of system in addition to a constant B. We have considered two states for B, one of them is constant...
