Hi everyone,
I have been using org-mode to make a beamer presentation for the last
few days. Works very well except for a few kinks, e.g. I can't put
latex like this $..$ in the presentation title. I tried something like
this,
#+TITLE: Search for $W'$ resonances
This simply escapes the $ signs. However if I try things like
#+TITLE: Search for W' resonances \newline (\sqrt s = 7TeV)
Then the newline and the square root is rendered as expected.
I would like to render W' as it is rendered in math mode to be
consistent with the rest of my talk. Is that possible? Am I missing
anything obvious?

For this part, try with \linebreak.
Best regards,

Thanks for the tip Seb. I'll use that from now on. :)
However this doesn't answer my query, how do I write something in math
fonts inside a title or a caption? I could simply edit the tex source
and run "latex < presentation.tex", but that quits with a "Latex
Error", hence my question. And I am not familiar enough with latex to
troubleshoot this and find out what is the source of the problem. :(
If it would help, I could try to provide with a small example which
shows the same symptoms.

Thanks a lot for your response.

What exactly is it that does not work? The dollar sign method? If so,
the workaround you have above is not only good, it's the preferred LaTeX
method: inline math is marked with \( and \) and as you note above that
works fine.
Apologies if I've missed a crucial part of the discussion and thanks
for any forthcoming explanation.
Nick

Thanks Nick! I was missing the \(...\) bit. I was using $...$ instead.
Now with parantheses it works exactly as I want it to. :)
