Abstract

In this lecture, I will describe those aspects of string theory which are relevant for Cosmology, with emphasis, for the purposes of this meeting, on the problem of connecting string theory to observational reality.I will talk on

  • fundamental strings

  • cosmic strings

  • the possible connection among them
