| Abstract Note | The understanding of phase transitions has long been a fundamental problem of statistical mechanics. It has made spectac?? ular progress during the last few years, largely because of the ideas of K.G. Wilson, in applying to an apparently quite different domain the methods of the renormalization group, which had been developped in the framework of the quantum theory of fields. The ability of these theoretical methods to lead to very precise predictions has, ~n turn, stimulated in the last few years more refined experiments in different areas. We now have entered a period where the theoretical results yielded by the renormalization group approach are suffi?? ciently precise and can be compared with those of the traditional method of high temperature series expansion on lattices, and with the experimental data. Although very similar, the results coming from the renormalization group and high temperature analysis seemed to indicate systematic discrepancies between the continuous field theory and lattice models. It was therefore important to appreciate the reliability of the predictions coming from both theoretical schemes, and to compare them to the latest experimental results. We think that this Cargese Summer Institute has been very successful 1 in this respect. Indeed, leading experts in the field, both experimentalists and theoreticians, have gathered and presented detailed analysis of the present situation. In particular, B.G. Nickel has produced longer high temperature series which seem to indicate that the discrepancies between series and renormalization group results have been previously overestimated |

| Title | Recent Developments in Gravitation : Carg??se 1978 |
| Author(s) | Levy, Maurice;Deser, S |
| Publication | New York, NY, Springer US, 1979. |
| Description | 596 p : online resource |
| Abstract Note | The theory of General Relativity, after its invention by Albert Einstein, remained for many years a monument of mathemati?? cal speculation, striking in its ambition and its formal beauty, but quite separated from the main stream of modern Physics, which had centered, after the early twenties, on quantum mechanics and its applications. In the last ten or fifteen years, however, the situation has changed radically. First, a great deal of significant exper~en?? tal data became available. Then important contributions were made to the incorporation of general relativity into the framework of quantum theory. Finally, in the last three years, exciting devel?? opments took place which have placed general relativity, and all the concepts behind it, at the center of our understanding of par?? ticle physics and quantum field theory. Firstly, this is due to the fact that general relativity is really the "original non-abe?? lian gauge theory," and that our description of quantum field in?? teractions makes extensive use of the concept of gauge invariance. Secondly, the ideas of supersymmetry have enabled theoreticians to combine gravity with other elementary particle interactions, and to construct what is perhaps the first approach to a more finite quantum theory of gravitation, which is known as super?? gravity |
