Description
This course introduces basic concepts of string theory and its application to particle physics in a non-technical way. It addresses physicists or mathematicians who have not taken a string theory course before and who would like to get a general idea of why string theory is considered a leading candidate for a theory of quantum gravity and how it makes contact with concepts in particle physics and cosmology.
