I had been interested in particle physics, which deals with the fundamental constituents of matter. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
One of the questions that always puzzled human history is, what are we, and everything around us, made of. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
My work on symmetries of string theory is on what is known as strong-weak coupling duality, or S-duality. — Ashoke Sen Duality Copy Share Image
Since my work is theoretical, the financial needs are very little. Doing the research itself is the toughest challenge. — Ashoke Sen Money Copy Share Image
My dream was to be a 'scientist' even before I knew what a scientist did. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
I came to realise that string theory offers us the best hope of finding a unified theory of all matter and forces. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
There are no excuses for theoretical physicists not to perform and deliver. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
My work on black holes was on the connection between black holes and elementary particles. — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
I work in string theory. This is a branch of physics which assumes that the elementary objects in the universe are not… — Ashoke Sen Physics Copy Share Image
In many ways, string theory attempts to go beyond Einstein's dream... an all-encompassing description of nature that works at large distances where… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
In theoretical physics, one can, in principle, work from anyplace as long as one has a computer and Internet connection. So I… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
Theoretical physics hardly requires any research funding, so I never felt the need. The overall government and institutional support has been good… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
Throughout my work, I have assumed that the standard model is correct, and hence, the Higgs boson should be found. Although this… — Ashoke Sen Discovery Copy Share Image
My work indicated that if we consider smaller and smaller black holes, at some stage, the properties of black holes become indistinguishable… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
The beauty of string theory is that it is all about mathematics. For that, you don't need resources or labs. Just sit… — Ashoke Sen Beauty Copy Share Image
One of the main successes of string theory is that it has been able to unify the general theory of relativity, which… — Ashoke Sen Copy Share Image
Good teachers have joined Presidency from different parts of the country and even abroad. We have got idealistic teachers, and we are… — Ashoke Sen Country Copy Share Image
To me, the most exciting thing about the discovery of the Higgs particle is that its existence was predicted fifty years before… — Ashoke Sen Discovery Copy Share Image
The beauty of science is to imagine more than we can prove. And string theory gives you a radically different interpretation of… — Ashoke Sen Beauty Copy Share Image
