I said "doomed" because communicating is useful as long as it responds to treating problems of any kind. If you want to communicate with a civilization which is 50.000 light years away, my guess is that it will be, being optimistic, a boring "conversation"... In the NA and Eu comparison that...

Well, you can also think of 1900s. By that time, with the known and well stablished physics, it was just non-sense to propose something like the laser or Nanotechnology, to cite just a few examples. In my point of view, we will surely discover an entire new realm of physics when we can probe...

Also, we're supposing that Relativity will hold for a long time from now... If we can speculate with such hypothetical cases, we may think of exotic ways of communication. So, my answer would be: If our basic understanding of space and time doesn't evolve, yeah, we're doomed. But we can also...

Would you please share that information? I'd like to take a look of that too.

Wow. What's the experimental way in which you determined that? I think we shouldn't make such statements as if this was religion or logic. Thank you for your time.

Yeah, I do think so. What I meant is that I want to focus primarily on the main theoretical tools I need to learn in order to gain some insight of the correspondence and I will later learn the details. To pose it this way: I want a "serious flavor" of what this is about (an intermediate point...

Thank you both! Maybe I should have specified a little more on my interests. I want to learn SUSY for a better understanding of the AdS/CFT correspondence, so I guess I don't really need the full machinery of the theory (I'm referring to the supersymmetric particles and that type of things), do...

Hey everyone! I just wanted some advice in some user-friendly bibliography in SUSY (I have QFT background and GR too, I don't know if this is relevant but whatever...). My intention is to learn it on my own, maybe I can ask some questions to a professor. Thank you in before!

Hi PF, My name is Alex and I'm currently studying an MSc in Theoretical Physics. My research interests are, among others: Black Holes, Holographic Principle, Gauge/gravity correspondence, String Theory, ... My Master Thesis is about Integrability in the AdS/CFT correspondence and rotating...
