Physics papers honoring Abdus Salam

This volume gathers papers presented at a November 1997 memorial meeting for Abdus Salam, the Nobel laureate and founding director of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics. Its subject is the theoretical study of fundamental forces, with most contributions addressing developments in superstring theory, including duality and D-branes. The collection therefore serves both as a record of a scholarly gathering and as a snapshot of research topics discussed in theoretical physics at that time. Its 279 pages bring together contributions from colleagues and students in tribute to Salam’s scientific work.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Abdus Salam’s legacy and the academic community around him.
  • Those exploring theoretical physics, especially superstring theory, duality, or D-branes.
  • Researchers and students seeking a historical collection of conference papers from 1997.

Book overview

The Abdus Salam Memorial Meeting was held from the 19th to the 22nd of November, 1997 on the first anniversary of the death of Prof Abdus Salam, Nobel laureate and Founder-Director of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics. It was an opportunity for many of his colleagues and students to pay homage to him.

This invaluable volume, comprising the papers presented at the meeting, reflects the long-lasting passion of Prof Salam for the theory of the fundamental forces. Most of the contributions are concerned with recent developments in the theory of superstrings, including duality, D-branes and related topics.
