  • Jacob Bekenstein: The Conservative Revolutionary

    by Lars Brink, Viatcheslav F Mukhanov, Eliezer Rabinovici, Kok Khoo Phua ...
    Jacob Bekenstein, an Israeli physicist of the Hebrew University, Jerusalem, planted the seeds of a revolution of our understanding of space-time. Using conservative intuitive methods including time-old gedanken experiments, he discovered that black holes have thermodynamical properties such as entropy.Moreover, he found that their entropy was not extensive, unlike that of any other thermodynamical ...

  • Topological Phase Transitions And New Developments

    by Lars Brink, Mike Gunn, Jorge V Jose, John Michael Kosterlitz, Kok Khoo Phua ...
    Geometry and topology have been a fascination in physics since the start of the 20th century. A leading example is Einstein's geometrical theory of gravity. At the beginning of the 1970s, topological ideas entered areas of condensed matter physics. These advances were driven by new seminal ideas resolving a serious contradiction between experiment and the standard interpretation of a rigorous ... Read more

  • Higher Spin Gauge Theories

    by Lars Brink, Marc Henneaux, Mikhail A Vasiliev ...
    Symmetries play a fundamental role in physics. Non-Abelian gauge symmetries are the symmetries behind theories for massless spin-1 particles, while the reparametrization symmetry is behind Einstein's gravity theory for massless spin-2 particles. In supersymmetric theories these particles can be connected also to massless fermionic particles. Does Nature stop at spin-2 or can there also be massless ... Read more

    by Nathan Jacob Berkovits, Lars Brink, Ling-lie Chau, Kok Khoo Phua, Charles B Thorn ...
    Stanley Mandelstam (1928-2016) was one of the most influential and respected particle theorists. Coming as a young chemical engineer from South Africa to study theoretical physics in England, he quickly became a leading physicist in his field. With his deep understanding of quantum field theory, he pioneered the development of the analytic S-matrix theory as well as the path-dependent formulations ... Read more
