David Gross to present "Beyond Space and Time" as the PCTS 2018 Distinguished Visiting Lecturer

Special Events, Lectures, Physics

David Gross will present "Beyond Space and Time" as the Princeton Center for Theoretical Science (PCTS) 2018 Distinguished Visiting Lecturer.

Abstract:
I explore the evolving concepts of space and time in physics.  Today our concepts of spacetime are once again challenged as we struggle to understand quantum gravity, unify the forces of nature and probe the beginning of the universe. I discuss some of the ideas that are currently advanced.

Equal Opportunity and Nondiscrimination at Princeton University: Princeton University believes that commitment to principles of fairness and respect for all is favorable to the free and open exchange of ideas, and the University seeks to reach out as widely as possible in order to attract the ablest individuals as students, faculty, and staff. In applying this policy, the University is committed to nondiscrimination on the basis of personal beliefs or characteristics such as political views, religion, national or ethnic origin, race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, pregnancy, age, marital or domestic partnership status, veteran status, disability, genetic information and/or other characteristics protected by applicable law in any phase of its education or employment programs or activities. In addition, pursuant to Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 and supporting regulations, Princeton does not discriminate on the basis of sex in the education programs or activities that it operates; this extends to admission and employment. Inquiries about the application of Title IX and its supporting regulations may be directed to the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights, Office for Civil Rights, U.S. Department of Education or to the University's Sexual Misconduct/Title IX Coordinator.
