5 Preface The theory of General Relativity, after its invention by Albert Einstein, remained for many years a monument of mathematical speculation, striking in its ambition and its formal beauty, but quite separated from the main stream of modern Physics, which had centered, after the early twenties, on quantum mechanics and its applications. In the last ten or fifteen years, however, the situation has changed radically. First, a great deal of significant exper~ental data became available. Then important contributions were made to the incorporation of general relativity into the framework of quantum theory. Finally, in the last three years, exciting developments took place which have placed general relativity, and all the concepts behind it, at the center of our understanding of particle physics and quantum field theory. Firstly, this is due to the fact that general relativity is really the "original non-abelian gauge theory," and that our description of quantum field interactions makes extensive use of the concept of gauge invariance. Secondly, the ideas of supersymmetry have enabled theoreticians to combine gravity with other elementary particle interactions, and to construct what is perhaps the first approach to a more finite quantum theory of gravitation, which is known as supergravity. Since many physicists are now involved in one way or another with gravitation, and since there had not been any international summer institute on the theory of gravitation for approximately ten years, it seemed to the organizers of the 1978 Cargeae Summer Institute particularly appropriate to review the whole field, starting with the classical theory of gravitation, then covering the quantum formulation, and arriving finally at the very recent developments of supergravity. A review was also included of the present exper~ental status of the theory of gravitation. Thus, the 1978 Swnmer Institute brought together the "classical" specialists of general relativity who were interested in learning more about recent developments and the elementary particle physicists who wanted to familiarize themselves with the mathematical and experimental framework of gravitation. It was, in all v
6 vi PREFACE respects, very successful, showing the validity of the original idea. Thanks to the active cooperation of all the lecturers we were able to bring quickly together the texts of all the courses given at Cargese. This enables us to present here a relatively complete review of many aspects of the theory of gravitation. This book should be extremely useful therefore to all the physicists who want to learn about recent developments, or to the specialists in other branches of physics who want to incorporate general relativity into their work. This Summer Institute was made possible by a grant from the Scientific Committee of NATO, within its Advanced Study Institutes Programme. It is a pleasure to thank its members for their encouragement and understanding. We would also like to thank three organizations in France which helped us financially: the D~legation Generale; la Recherche Scientifique et Technique (DGRST), the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS) and the Institute National d'astronomie et de Geophysique (INAG). Our thanks are also due to the National Science Foundation in the United States, to' the University of Nice and to the "Universite Pierre et Marie Curie" in Paris, who all helped in one way or another. Finally, we would like to thank all those who worked very hard to organize the Institute, particularly Dr. Jean-Louis BaHdevant and Miss Marie-France Hanseler, and of course, all the lecturers, without whose efforts and enthusiasm nothing would have been possible.
