抄録

String phenomenology is the study of the connection between string theory - our leading candidate for a unified theory of particle physics and gravity - and the observable phenomena of particle physics and cosmology. As such, it provides the means by which ideas of string theory can have an impact on current and upcoming experiments. In these lectures, I will review some recent developments in string phenomenology with an emphasis on flux compactification. Flux compactification has emerged to be a fruitful arena for addressing simultaneously several phenomenological problems in string theory, including moduli stabilization, supersymmetry breaking, and the weak hierarchy problem. Explicit models of flux compactification may also shed light on the statistics of the string theory landscape, and in the construction of realistic early universe cosmology. I will discuss how realistic particle physics models and inflationary scenarios can be constructed in this context, and conversely how experiments can probe the geometry of string compactification.
