Best Answer

In string theory a string is a one-dimensional object. It has length, but no width or height. It's hard to compare a one-dimensional object with a three-dimensional object like an atom in any meaningful way.

About the best answer that can be given is that if it turns out that string theory or one of its variants is correct, atoms are composed of objects that are themselves made up of strings.

Smaller particles than the atom?

A particle smaller than atom is a subatomic particle, protons , neutrons, and , electrons, the smallest one is an electron, smaller than that are point particles and elementary particles, one elementary particle and point particle is a quark, up quarks down quarks the smallest single thing found so far is a GLUON, which is the force which binds/holds quarks together. Where the devil lives in anti matter there are also atoms and subatomic particles and point particles but just anti, anti- GLUON, anti-QUARK, anti-ATOM, anti-SUBATOMIC PARTICLE. There is something called the string theory, and super string theory that theorizes about bosonic/boson strings but it can not be provine yet, and I think a gluon is still alot smaller than a bosonic/boson string if they are true.
