Super Relativity - Theory
String Theory has us all tied up in a knot !
At last count there are currently 6 major variations of the theory. See table below:
A Brief Table of String Theories |
| Type | Dimensions | Details |
Bosonic |
26 |
Only bosons, no fermions means only forces, no matter, Major flaw: a particle with imaginary mass, called the tachyon |
I |
10 |
Supersymmetry between forces and matter, with both open and closed strings, no tachyon |
| IIA | 10 | Supersymmetry between forces and matter, |
| IIB | 10 | Supersymmetry between forces and matter, with closed strings only |
| HO | 10 | Supersymmetry between forces and matter, with closed strings only |
| HE | 10 | Supersymmetry between forces and matter, with closed strings only. |
