Explore fermionic strings in this advanced physics lecture delivered by Ashoke Sen at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into the sophisticated realm of supersymmetric string theories, focusing on the mathematical and physical foundations of fermionic string formulations. Examine the spectrum and interactions of Free Heterotic String theories, Free Type II and Type I Superstring theories, gaining insight into their fundamental properties and applications. Learn about picture changing operators and their crucial role in string theory calculations, while developing skills in amplitude computations for supersymmetric systems. Build upon prerequisite knowledge of Quantum Field Theory, General Relativity, and String Theory 1 to understand the advanced concepts of fermionic strings and their place in modern theoretical physics. Master the computational techniques necessary for analyzing spectrum and interactions in supersymmetric string theories, preparing for advanced research in string theory and related fields.
