On the Development of Effective Field Theory
Steven Weinberg
This is a lightly edited version of the talk given on September 30, 2020 to inaugurate the international seminar series {\it All Things EFT}. It reviews some of the early history o…
Massless Particles in Higher Dimensions
Steven Weinberg
In spacetimes of any dimensionality, the massless particle states that can be created and destroyed by a field in a given representation of the Lorentz group are severely constrain…
Joseph Polchinski: A Biographical Memoir
Raphael Bousso, Fernando Quevedo, Steven Weinberg
Joseph Polchinski (1954-2018), one of the the leading theoretical physicists of the past 50 years, was an exceptionally broad and deep thinker. He made fundamental contributions to…
Models of Lepton and Quark Masses
Steven Weinberg
A class of models is considered in which the masses only of the third generation of quarks and leptons arise in the tree approximation, while masses for the second and first genera…
Absorption of Gravitational Waves from Distant Sources
Raphael Flauger, Steven Weinberg
The rate of gravitational wave absorption by inverse bremsstrahlung is calculated. It increases with decreasing frequency as . Nevertheless, because of the near cancell…
Gravitational Waves in Cold Dark Matter
Raphael Flauger, Steven Weinberg
We study the effects of cold dark matter on the propagation of gravitational waves of astrophysical and primordial origin. We show that the dominant effect of cold dark matter on g…
