书籍简介

25年前，迈克尔-格林、约翰·施瓦茨和爱德华·维滕写了两卷关于弦理论的书。这两卷书是在这一学科迅速发展的时期出版的，对一代学生和研究人员产生了很大的影响。尽管此后该领域取得了巨大的进步，但这两卷书中对超弦理论基础的系统阐述在今天与之前出版时一样有意义。第二卷是关于单环振幅的评估、反常现象的研究和现象学。它研究了反常现象的低能有效场论分析、规整组E8 x E8和SO(32)的出现以及通过压缩六个额外维度产生的四维物理学。本书有一个新的序言，根据进展对工作进行了背景设定，对于高能物理学和天体物理学的研究生和研究人员以及数学家来说是非常宝贵的。

Twenty-five years ago, Michael Green, John Schwarz, and Edward Witten wrote two volumes on string theory. Published during a period of rapid progress in this subject, these volumes were highly influential for a generation of students and researchers. Despite the immense progress that has been made in the field since then, the systematic exposition of the foundations of superstring theory presented in these volumes is just as relevant today as when first published. Volume 2 is concerned with the evaluation of one-loop amplitudes, the study of anomalies and phenomenology. It examines the low energy effective field theory analysis of anomalies, the emergence of the gauge groups E8 x E8 and SO(32) and the four-dimensional physics that arises by compactification of six extra dimensions. Featuring a new Preface setting the work in context in light of recent advances, this book is invaluable for graduate students and researchers in high energy physics and astrophysics, as well as mathematicians.
