gravaton
An individual point particle in the standard model is described in string theory as a mode of vibration of a string. If for some reason the mode of vibration of the string changed, the particle would change to a different one.
Particle theory, as opposed to string theory.
Recent advancements in string theory experiments include the use of particle accelerators to test predictions of string theory, such as the existence of extra dimensions and supersymmetry. Additionally, researchers are exploring the possibility of detecting gravitational waves as evidence for string theory. These experiments aim to provide empirical support for the mathematical framework of string theory and further our understanding of the fundamental nature of the universe.
String theory is simply an enhancement of the traditional particle theory, that takes into account newly observed facts about subatomic particles. It neither proves nor disproves the existence of God. Nothing in science does this.
The particle theory is called the "particle model" or "particle theory of matter." It proposes that all matter is composed of tiny particles that are in constant motion.
It doesn't mean much. The Higgs Boson is only necessary for the Standard Model to be correct; the Standard Model excludes gravity, and String Theory is a theory of quantum gravity. The two are separate from one another.
Einstein didn't have a String Theory
wave theory of light
It was Max Planck who used the particle theory of light.
There are two possible answers. Under the point-particle physics of today, a neutrino is an elementary particle, and as such, it is not composed of anything but its own material. The other answer exists under string theory. In string theory, elementary particles are all made up of the same material, one dimensional strings. These strings vibrate at different rates to create the different elementary particles. Therefore a neutrino would be a string vibrating at a specific rate unique to neutrinos. If it vibrated at any other rate, it would not be a neutrino.
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.
