		It is believed that the name of the grape Shiraz was taken from that of the city of Shiraz, Iran, where the process of winemaking is believed to have originated 7000 years ago.
		Shiraz University, formerly known as Pahlavi University, placed in city of Shiraz is one of major universities in Iran.
		The initial nucleus of Shiraz University was formed in 1946 with the establishment of a junior college which aimed at training specialists in the medical sciences with a four year program.

		Yet in shorts and sandals on a recent spring afternoon, Minwalla communicated at least the basics to an astronomy and modern physics class at Lawrence High School.
		Before they met Minwalla, many of the Lawrence students worried the material might be over their heads, said Ruben Melendez, 18.
		Minwalla hopes the light bulb will turn on in at least a few minds as a result of his lectures.

		Minwalla explores the little-understood area of string theory, a field that many scientists hope will be able to provide a complete picture of our universe’s physical laws.
		Minwalla said his work might help answer fundamental theoretical questions in mathematics and physics.
		While Minwalla’s research is strictly theoretical, Liu’s is hands-on in the laboratory.

		Most theoretical physicists Shiraz knows may be classified either as mathematically oriented people; or as physically oriented people.
		Cumrun belongs to a third category: he is a magician because he sees the truth directly, Shiraz explained.

		Shiraz arrived for classes that occurred at the end of the school day and talked for an hour in class, then stayed for another hour answering questions after class.
		During his second visit he talked to the the astronomy class about quantum mechanics and its relation to structure of stars and structure of the universe.

	Luboš Motl's reference frame: Sidneyfest
		Shiraz Minwalla asked whether Witten agreed that we had no known examples in which time, as opposed to space, seemed to be emergent.
		I did not have a feeling that Edward Witten was answering exactly this question but he still managed to say something interesting.
		Note that relativity implies that anything that holds for space should hold for time, too - and therefore our apparent inability to show that time is emergent may lead to us to an incorrect conclusion.

	Citebase - S-Duality and Noncommutative Gauge Theory
		Authors: Gopakumar, Rajesh; Maldacena, Juan; Minwalla, Shiraz; Strominger, Andrew
		It is conjectured that strongly coupled, spatially noncommutative \CN=4 Yang-Mills theory has a dual description as a weakly coupled open string theory in a near critical electric field, and that this dual theory is fully decoupled from closed strings.

		Date: Thu, 8 Jun 2000 21:46:53 GMT (313kb) Title: OM Theory in Diverse Dimensions Authors: Rajesh Gopakumar, Shiraz Minwalla, Nathan Seiberg and Andrew Strominger Comments: 18 pages, harvmac, devnag, 3 figs \\ Open string theories can be decoupled from closed strings and gravity by scaling to the critical electric field.
		We propose dual descriptions for the strong coupling limit of these NCOS (Non-Commutative Open String) theories in six or fewer spacetime dimensions.
		In two dimensions we conjecture that supersymmetric U($n$) gauge theory with a unit of electric flux is dual to the NCOS theory with string coupling $1 \over n$.

		Andrew Strominger of Harvard, who facilitated the gift, said that this team has "the highest intellectual output per dollar of any such group in the world".
		A strong collaboration between the Physics Department at Harvard and TIFR is expected to begin when the young string theorist Shiraz Minwalla of Harvard joins the TIFR in 2004.
		The gift is a real reward for the Indian string theorists who have made sustained and influential contributions to the subject of string theory over many years.
