String theory

The string theory is based on the hypothesis that all particles originate as the vibrations of a single string.

 


Explanation

Strings would have dimensions near the Planck length (10−35 meters) and are therefore not perceptible.

 


History

In 1968 the Italian physicist Gabriele Veneziano described the strong interaction in a way that also applies to the quantum mechanics of vibrating strings.
