This volume is a compilation of lectures delivered at the TASI 2015 summer school, "New Frontiers in Fields and Strings", held at the University of Colorado Boulder in June 2015. The school focused on topics in theoretical physics of interest to contemporary researchers in quantum field theory and string theory. The lectures are accessible to graduate students in the initial stages of their research careers.
Contents:
- The Conformal Bootstrap (David Simmons-Duffin)
- TASI Lectures on AdS/CFT (João Penedones)
- Higher Spin — CFT Duality (Simone Giombi)
- TASI 2015 Lectures on Quantum Matter (with a View Toward Holographic Duality) (John McGreevy)
- Lectures on Gravity and Entanglement (Mark Van Raamsdonk)
- The Black Hole Information Problem (Joseph Polchinski)
- Lectures on Dark Matter Physics (Mariangela Lisanti)
- Lectures on Inflation (Leonardo Senatore)
- TASI Lectures on Cosmological Observables and String Theory (Eva Silverstein)
- TASI 2015 Participants
Readership: Graduate students and researchers in particle physics.
