SUMMARY:The 2nd Jerusalem Winter School in Theoretical Physics: Physics in Higher Dimensions
DESCRIPTION:Physics in Higher Dimensions
The Victor Rothschild Memorial Symposia
All lectures will take place at the Israel Institute for Advanced Studies,
at the Edmond J. Safra, Givat Ram Campus
General Director: Steven Weinberg, University of Texas at Austin
 
In the last few years there has been a revival of interest in the old idea that spacetime may have more than four dimensions, all but four having been curled up into a small circumference. In this view the various particles and interactions we see at ordinary energies arise from a simple, perhaps purely geometrical, theory in higher dimensions. This idea has profound implications for elementary particle physics and cosmology, and raises challenging problems of mathematics. These matters are the topic of the Second Jerusalem Winter School of Theoretical Physics.
