11 de nov. de 2022 · Cumrun Vafa (Princeton U.), Edward Witten (Princeton U. & Princeton, Inst. Advanced Study) Apr 1984 - 39 pages. Abstract: We show that QCD with a sufficient number of fermions of zero bare mass has physical massless particles. That result also follows from triangle anomalies, so only our method is novel.

Public Lectures. What is string theory? String theory is an attempt by theoretical physicists to find a unified fundamental theory of nature that merges quantum mechanics with Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity. String theory provides a framework to unify everything we know about nature, including all particles and the forces between them ...
As a child, Vafa was fascinated by puzzles and even incorporated them into his physics course for freshmen students at Harvard where he has taught theoretical physics since 1985. “Puzzles can unravel mysteries of the universe and illustrate the simplicity of physical laws and the elegance of mathematics,” said Vafa.
