String Theory

“The power and beauty of physical laws is that they apply everywhere, whether or not you choose to believe in them. In other words, after the laws of physics, everything else is opinion.” An astrophysicist by training but an energetic, effective communicator by nature, Neil deGrasse Tyson offers a brief introduction into the origin and evolution of the universe. Compacting the entirety of the universe into a conglomeration of two-hundred pages requires Tyson to move swiftly through his analysis, often employing wit, anecdotes, and science-fiction references to maintain his narrative have an ecstatic atmosphere. His goal throughout this book is as astronomically large as the cosmos itself: to create a scientifically literate population. Speaking

of science and gives reasons why none of these fields can explain why we are

One of the most talked about topics is the metaphysical component. In which one sees the natural and sees how things work even when we are children. For example, imagine a dog, a cat, and a kangaroo in television and we set a group in our mind that tells that that these are in the category of animals, and successively other things as well. In my field of study, it’s in extreme importance to set the idea that what we

At the end we will have few definitive answers, but many notable implications for the way that we perceive our world on many different levels.

Certain philosophers would have you believe that science at best is an integrated, and reconstituted distillation of all the current knowledge at any one time (much like Campbell's condensed Tomato soup: boring and uninteresting). A diminutive subset of these natural thinkers has even dared to characterize our universe as one with an infinite number of happenings outside the current domain of knowledge.

The universe of the past was understood to be a simple one-galaxy model that was both unchanging and immeasurable. Theories have constantly changed and been reconstructed to better portray the progression of human understanding over time. “The cosmos began

In order to understand our place in the universe, we must understand the universe itself. Scientists, researchers, astronomers, cosmologists, physicists, amateur astronomers and a slew of other groups of individuals largely interested in the cosmos, help with discovering new and fascinating theories or proof of different phenomenon within the universe. Three scientific articles help readers to realize scientists are constantly deep in work to unravel the hidden truths. “Dark Matter in the Discovery Age”, “Why the Universe Had no Beginning”, and “What String Theory tells Us About the Universe” include theories vastly different from one another, but lead to the same conclusion; the universe’s creation.

“We actually have 2 answers, one answer is what we tell people and the other answer is the truth… Answer number 1, we are reproducing the physics, the conditions just after the Big Bang. We’re doing it in this collider and we’re reproducing that so we can see what it was like when the universe just started. This is what we tell people… answer 2, we’re trying to understand the basic laws of nature… We study particles because just after the Big Bang, all there was particles. And they carried the information about how our universe started and how it got to be the way it is and it’s future” (Particle Fever).

What is string theory and what does it mean for human kind? String theory is a theory that seeks to unify the four forces of nature and explain the origins of our universe. Before the string theory, it was impossible to combine the theories of General Relativity and Quantum Mechanics. By using tiny vibrating strings of energy that are 10-33 m in length, scientists can create all the fundamental particles we’ve started to find using particle accelerators. Then, using these particles they can try to unite the two different theories and create a universe that is perhaps, more perfect than the Standard Model will allow. And what’s great about string theory is that it explains more than just how gravity, electromagnetic force, weak nuclear

In the scientific community, there are numerous models used to explain data, which despite being argued over, can be used to spread knowledge. One model proposed by Hempel is the “Covering Law Model,” which can be explained when he writes: “The kind of explanation thus characterized I will call deductive nomological explanation; for it amounts to a deductive subsumption of the explanandum under principles which have the character of general laws” (Hempel, 658). Essentially, the D-N model explains scientific explanation as deductive, requiring the truth of its premises to ensure the truth of the conclusion, which also must be backed up by an accurate prediction of whichever phenomenon is being explained. However, there are problems with this model, as explained by Kim when he writes: “In a nutshell, then, the trouble is that we have had models, but not theories, of explanation” (Kim, 53). Hempel’s critics want to include metaphysics under explanation, which would essentially mean putting more emphasis on causal factors to make sense of the world, rather than using readily explainable phenomenon like gravitational pull. Though they have their disagreements with each other, I believe that both methods have merit, and adding causal realism to the Covering Law Model is currently the best solution to explaining scientific concepts.

Basically, String theory based on the fact that the dimensions relative to you may be different from that of some other creature. Let's see how.

Karl Popper is one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century believed that strength of a scientific theory lies in its both being susceptible to falsification, and not actually being falsified by criticism made of it. He considered that if a theory cannot, in principle, be falsified by criticism, it is not a scientific theory.

The World around us is getting more and more precisely described, all thanks to the knowledge we gained over the centuries, but as our knowledge grows it also starts to surpass the world around us, so we have no real use of it any more. Long ago Newton first described the gravitational force, which lead to sending satellites into the orbit as well as men onto the moon and in the future it will probably lead to colonization of Mars. Such use of knowledge is one that not only brings benefit for humanity, but also opens up new opportunities, such as the current testing on what happens with a human body in a weightless environment. But there is no real world application in theoretical physics, those things stay only on paper and while it's nothing

String theory is a theory that states that the universe is made up of vibrating strings. It is the best candidate for a quantum theory of gravity. String theory attempts to be a theory of everything.

My interests in physics surround the central theme of developing a unified description of the fundamental laws of the universe that is based on underlying symmetries and devoid of free, dimensionless parameters. Superstring theories are one class of theory that endeavours to provide such a description. My graduate research has included projects in both theoretical developments using type IIB supergravity (SUGRA), as well as its application via the AdS/CFT correspondence.
