Autorenporträt

Gianguido Dall'Agata obtained his PhD in theoretical physics at the University of Turin, Italy, in 2000. After covering postdoctoral positions at the Humboldt University in Berlin and CERN, he joined Padua University, where he currently is full professor in theoretical physics. For his research on classical and quantum gravity he received the 2008 SIGRAV prize.

Marco Zagermann obtained his PhD in Physics at Pennsylvania State University in 2000. After postdoctoral stays at the University of Halle, Germany, CERN and Stanford University, he led an Emmy Noether Research Group at the Max Planck Institute for Physics in Munich. As a faculty member of the University of Hannover and the University of Hamburg and as lecturer at various international schools and lecture series, he has taught numerous courses related to the subjects covered in this book. His research focuses on the phenomenological, cosmological and mathematical aspects of string theory and supergravity.
