  1. Quantumquivering of gravity The search for the unified field theory

  2. Interactions • Electro-Weak Theory • GUT • Quantum field + gravity • Superstring • Experiments

  3. Gravitational • General theory of relativity • A. Einstein 1916 • Warping of space time • Symmetry between observations

  4. Electromagnetic • J. C. Maxwell 1865 • Quantum electrodynamics • Renormalization • Gauge symmetry

  5. Weak • Nuclear force • B-decay • Breaking of symmetry

  6. Strong • Quantum chromodynamics 1970s • Color RGB • M. Gell’Mann • The Eightfold Way • Quarks • Symmetry

  7. Interactions • Gravitational • Electromagnetic • Weak • Strong

  8. Electro-Weak Theory • S. Weinberg, A. Salam, S. Glashow 1968 • Symmetry electron neutrino • G. T’ Hooft – renormalizable • P. Higgs – higgs boson mass

  9. GUT • H. Georgi, S. Glashow 1974 • Prediction quark electron decay • Supersymmetry
