Do you find the adding up of Feynman diagrams tedious?
Hidden symmetries found in the sums of diagrams suggest there is a better way to predict the results
of particle collisions. In the past two years, spin-offs of a new theory, known as the Twistor
String Theory, have led to the development of efficient alternatives to Feynman diagrams which can
be useful for work at the Tevatron, the LHC and for future research at the International Linear
Collider.
Come see what this ‘twistor’ is all about!
