Summary:

What is important to a professor of physics, astronomy and mathematics?  Join us for lunch and hear Nicholas Warner in our final program for the fall semester.

Description:

Professor Warner's research areas are field theory and string theory, and their applications.  His most recent research uses the ideas of classical integrable systems and shows how they can be used to understand some of the recent work on the phase structure of the strong interaction in particle physics.  He is a graduate of the Australian National University and the University of Cambridge, and is currently a fellow at CERN in Geneva, Switzerland.
