The Cosmic Symphony Part 1

String theory as we said gives a unification between Einstein's general relativity and the laws of quantum mechanics. We also talked about how strings make up the world around us being the heart of matter. This was previously questioned as to what then makes up strings if strings makes up matter. There are two possible answers that we can use when asked this question, one being we don't know. There is not nearly enough evidence for us to have a definitive answer, so we will rely on the fact that if other information comes to contradict string theory, then it can be wrong. The second answer we have is that strings aren't made of anything. They represent the end of the line, it can be explained using other terms in our English. Paragraphs are made up of sentences, which in turn are made up of words. These words are made up of letters, but letters are the end of the line, letters are the equivalent of strings(but much smaller). 

Unification though String Theory 

Strings as we said through different oscillations and vibrations make up matter. These vibrational patterns are known as resonances. The different patterns of a string give different masses and charges. 

Special relativity tells us that energy and mass are interchangeable, the greater the energy the greater the mass and vice versa. Particles that are heavier require strings that have more energy, just as lighter particles require strings that are less in energy.

There are two reasons why strings in string theory are so special. The first being that although being spatially extended they are explained in the framework of quantum mechanics. The second being that the differeent resonances have a specific one being the properties of the gravitron. This meaning that gravity and gravitational force plays a part in the structure. This is something that is very different than quantum mechanics where gravity is not so looked at. 

In the upcoming posts we will talk more about sting theory and more dimensions than meet the eye.
