Prospects in Theoretical Physics는 매년 여름 IAS 주최로 개설 되는데 2007/2008은 비디오 자료도 있고 재밌는 주제도 많이 다루는 것 같다.

2008 주제는 String Phenomenology
http://www.sns.ias.edu/pitp/index2008v2.html
강연자는 John Schwarz, Nima Arkani-Hamed, Stuart Raby, Luis Ibanez, Herman Velinde, Hans-Peter Niles, Shamit Kachru, Ed Witten 등등 아주 쟁쟁하다. 특히 Nima의 강의는 정말 학부수준의 물리지식의 pre requisite 만 갖고도 LHC parameter들에 대해서 잘 이해할 수 있도록 해주는 강의라는 생각이 든다. 정말 배우고 싶은 내용들을 갖춰 놓고 있어서 시간 날 때 마다 볼 생각이다.

2007 주제는 Standard Model and Beyond
http://www.sns.ias.edu/pitp/index2007.html
http://video.ias.edu/PiTP-2007
2007년은 주강의 비디오는 안 올라와 있고 특별강연을 한 Klebanov, Maldacena, Witten의 강의가 올라와 있다. 결국 좀 Stringy한 video들만 주로 올라와져 있는듯.

"SM (intro)" - Paul Langacker

PLUS special lectures by: Edward Witten, Juan Maldacena, Igor Klebanov

그런데 각 강의의 Lecture Note와 Problem들이 다 링크되어 있고, 이 내용을 위한 pre reading reference도 자세히 나와 있어서 필요한 부분을 공부할 때 참조하기 좋을 것 같다는 생각이 든다.
