Peter Gabriel Bergmann started his work on general relativity in 1936 when he moved from Prague to the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton. Bergmann collaborated with Einstein in an attempt to provide a geometrical unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. Within this program they wrote two articles together: A. Einstein and P. G. Bergmann, Ann. Math. 39, 685 (1938) ; and A. Einstein, V. Bargmann and P. G. Bergmann, Th. von Karman Anniversary Volume 212 (1941). The search for such a theory was intense in the ten years following the birth of general relativity. In recent years, some of the geometrical ideas proposed in these publications have proved essential in contemporary attempts towards the unification of all interactions including gravity, Kaluza-Klein type theories and supergravity theories. In 1942, Bergmann published the book "Introduction to the Theory of Relativity" which included a foreword by Albert Einstein. This book is a reference for the subject, either as a textbook for classroom use or for individual study. A second corrected and enlarged edition of the book was published in 1976. Einstein said in his foreword to the first edition: "Bergmann's book seems to me to satisfy a definite need. . . Much effort has gone into making this book logically and pedagogically satisfactory and Bergmann has spent many hours with me which were devoted to this end.

Tillfälligt slut
High energy physics has witnessed a remarkable development toward the theory of everything (TOE), whose best candidate is superstring theory. This development started with supersymmetry and has now reached the point of subjecting to experiment the problem of understanding the origin of space–time. This wide spectrum of unprecedented conceptual developments has its roots in our present knowledge of the fundamental forces of nature. This volume covers the most recent advances concerning these topics, taking into account their impact on observable phenomena. In addition, it reviews the status and prospects of all known gauge forces, including the experimental results on their validity.

In recent years, the cross-section between fundamental physics, astrophysics and cosmology has been increasing, both at the theoretical and experimental levels: particle physics experiments, astronomical observations, space satellite data. Such interplay fruitfully influenced research activity setting up Astrofundamental physics.Topics covered both theory and observations, and allowed for different approaches and different lines of research. Topics included are: dark matter, neutrinos in astrophysics, gamma-ray astrophysics, and a section devoted to gravity, cosmology and strings. Each of these topics has matter enough to constitute a course on its own. The interrelation between these topics is important and a source of problems at the frontiers of present knowledge and experimental limits. Latest available data are constraining theory and models in these topics. These lecture notes provide an occasion to review achievements, to confront theory and models with observations and among themselves, to exchange information on the latest developments and to discuss future prospects.

FROM SUPERSTRING TO PRESENT-DAY PHYSICS
Inbunden, Engelska, 1995

Tillfälligt slut
The high-precision data from LEP and the other experimental results from high-energy laboratories the world over have given with unprecedented accuracy a picture-perfect agreement between theory and experiment. The problem of present-day physics is how to reconcile the successes of the Standard Model with the compelling reasons for the existence of new physics beyond it. In fact there is no question that the ultimate theory is superstring: the Standard Model being an intermediate step toward the Theory of Everything.The theoretical and phenomenological aspects of those problems are reviewed and discussed in this volume, together with the most recent experimental data.
