String theory is a theory that attempts to reconcile general relativity and quantum mechanics by proposing that fundamental particles are not zero-dimensional objects but are instead tiny vibrating strings. It describes all observed fundamental forces and matter without constants but instead involves many fields like the Higgs field, which can give particles mass when interacting with the field. String theory is needed to fully understand our universe at low energy levels and may help break the mystery of the strong nuclear force. It proposes that all strings are oscillating in up to ten dimensions, with their paths projected into our familiar three dimensions.
String Theory
- 1. STRING THEORY THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING -SURYA PRAKASH
- 2. FAQs Actually what's it? String theory is a theory, that tries to adjust / harmonize / reconcile General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. What is General Relativity? Macroscopically tries to prove the physics around us. Ex: Newtonian principles – Gravity, Force, Velocity etc. What is Quantum Mechanics? Microscopically tries to prove what is the “matter” and what is it made of. From that, tries to connect it with General Relativity. Ex: Atomic level energy transfers – α,β,γ rays
- 3. Newtonian principles deal with real world objects/matter which can be measured.
- 4. What was before String theory? Before string theory it was believed that electrons and quarks within an atom were 0 dimensional (non-dimensional/dimensionless) objects. Now what? Now, it's proved that they're made up of 1-dimensional strings. The strings can oscillate. Gives, Flavour (field) Charge Mass Spin So, string theory is a quantum theory of gravity.
- 5. What String theory gives? It gives/describes all the observed fundamental forces and matter with a Zero constant & some new fields. Ex: F α a --------> F = m.a ------> m = constant But, string theory doesn't involve any constant like this, but involves many fields like Higgs field. If Higgs particles are interacted with Higgs field, they will get mass. So, It describes the origin of mass. Why needed? To understand our universe fully. We can get to know what's happening in low energy levels. String theory can break the mystery of strong nuclear force i.e. Quantum chromodynamics.
- 6. Can you imagine? All strings are oscillating in an almost unimaginable 10 dimension! A Ten dimensional string path projected in 3D
- 7. Levels of magnification: 1. Macroscopic level – Matter 2. Molecular level 3. Atomic level – Protons, neutrons, and electrons 4. Subatomic level – Electron 5. Subatomic level – Quarks 6. String level
