  2. String theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_theory

    String theory is a theoretical framework that attempts to address these questions and many others. The starting point for string theory is the idea that the point-like particles of particle physics can also be modeled as one-dimensional objects called strings. String theory describes how strings propagate through space and interact with each other.

  3. History of string theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_string_theory

    Schwarz and Scherk argued that string theory had failed to catch on because physicists had underestimated its scope. This led to the development of bosonic string theory. String theory is formulated in terms of the Polyakov action, [37] which describes how strings move through space and time. Like springs, the strings tend to contract to ...

  6. Type I string theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_I_string_theory

    In theoretical physics, type I string theory is one of five consistent supersymmetric string theories in ten dimensions. It is the only one whose strings are unoriented (both orientations of a string are equivalent) and the only one which perturbatively contains not only closed strings , but also open strings .

  8. Superstring theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superstring_theory

    This considerably complicates efforts to test string theory because there is an astronomically high number—10 500 or more—of configurations that meet some of the basic requirements to be consistent with our world. Along with the extreme remoteness of the Planck scale, this is the other major reason it is hard to test superstring theory.
