Supersymmetry

Beschrijving

Predicting the next stage in physics, supersymmetry, the author shows readers why this search for the theory underlying the basic structure of the universe will dominate the science in the future.

The physical theory called "supersymmetry" is as yet unproven, but its proof will unite the four fundamental forces of nature - electromagnetism, gravity, the strong and the weak nuclear forces - and will lead to the so called Grand Unified Theory (GUT) that physicist have long quested after. The theory underlying supersymmetry posits that every particle has a "super-partner" (e.g. a quark has a "squark, ... and so on) whose exisence can be adduced by observable behaviour.  Some of these super-partners, such as the conjectured Higgs boson are "really a new kind of matter", suggests physicist Gordon Kane in Supersymmetry

Accessible and thought provoking, Kane's book offers a glimpse of that knowledge to come.
