This memorial volume on the work of Wolfgang Kummer brings together articles devoted to the history of high energy physics with detailed coverage on the scientific concepts and scientific institutions, in particular CERN — and the underlying physics involved. Covering recent advances and developments as well as giving a reminiscent overview in two rapidly evolving fields of high energy/particle physics, and gravitational physics, the commemorative volume contains more than 20 original invited paper contributions — which will appear for the first time in print — from eminent and renowned physicists who interacted and collaborated with Wolfgang Kummer, including Physics Nobel Laureate Jack Steinberger.Wolfgang Kummer was president of the CERN council from 1985 to 1987, among his numerous eminent academic and administrative positions which he held during his illustrious career. This volume also aims to demonstrate and highlight Wolfgang Kummer's significant contribution to the foundational work in gauge field theory, particle physics, and quantum gravity, and the tremendous impact leading to cutting-edge findings and advances at LHC.Contents:Gauge Field Theory and Particle Physics:Noncovariant Gauges at Zero and Nonzero Temperature (P V Landshoff)Non-Relativistic Bound States: The Long Way Back from the Bethe–Salpeter to the Schrödinger Equation (A Vairo)Distended/Diminished Topologically Massive Electrodynamics (S Deser)Dynamical Spin (P G O Freund)Quantum Corrections to Solitons and BPS Saturation (A Rebhan et al.)Gauging Noncommutative Theories (H Grosse & M Wohlgenannt)Topological Phases and Contextuality Effects in Neutron Quantum Optics (H Rauch)First Class Constrained Systems and Twisting of Courant Algebroids by a Closed 4-Form (M Hansen & T Strobl)Some Local and Global Aspects of the Gauge Fixing in Yang–Mills-Theories (D N Blaschke et al.)Frozen Ghosts in Thermal Gauge Field Theory (P V Landshoff & A Rebhan)Classical and Quantum Gravity:Wolfgang Kummer and the Vienna School of Dilaton (Super-)Gravity (L Bergamin & R Meyer)Order and Chaos in Two Dimensional Gravity (R B Mann)2-D Midisuperspace Models for Quantum Black Holes (J Gegenberg & G Kunstatter)Global Solutions in Gravity.
