    Default Re: The Higgs Boson vs string theory

    Our house cat, OSCAR, was euthanized yesterday morning . his death was very upsetting .

    things are better now, though.

    string theory, n-dimensional space, bosons, Higgs or not, go together .

    string theory has a better application however : the theory of everything . TOE . Rapture . . .

    And, with multiple dimensional space linearly independent vector generators , the whole Or HOLE universe can be fabricated . my word, what a pun. maybe in bad taste . however, still worth considering .

    As we move into worm holes due with black holes we turn to Stephen Hawking and quantum chromodynamics . o h . joy I am free .

    elementary particles have colors . as will as up down spin qualities . top bottom qualities . and the universe is made of such . this universe , the next universe , all universe quid pro quo .

    back to reality .

    we need experimental physics to support these dreams . to support strings and string theory .

    bose einstein statistics give some help . mesons , spin 1 particles (bosons maybe, helium nuclei around there ) have ultra-low viscosity .

    with such low viscosity, liquid helium , climbs out of containers at 3 k . super-conducting develops in niobium tin wire and some synergism seems to develop.

    any how, pure, unfettered thermodynamic efficiency . next to talk about the partition functions for a system of particles , like liquid helium.

    i am going to break to "mail two letters". I will return .

    so, the partition function is a function of system (particle collection) energy . the lower the system energy the smaller the "partition" of system particles (atoms, molecules, Brownian dirt particles ) become.

    then, we have the "Equipartition Theorem". Equal energy slices of the system (each slice has a characteristic energy "width".

    so, it works very well if a persons thinks of a system made up of collections of particles in slices of some specific energy, say, in eV (electron volts) (energy bands) and band gaps, as in semiconductors. Silicon germanium, gallium arsenide and maybe another few of the practical ("tested", measured "semiconductor") with energy band and band gaps.


    maybe it seems i have gotten off the track of string-theory and bosons. but, they are all hear just the same.

    so, good night for now. Sleep well, i will see how i feel tomorrow. i am about out of steam.

    sleep well.

    good night.

    o.k. ,

    Steven M. Bauer.

    So far, so good. turns out the boson is a spin 0 particle, (a'la Tom M) and gravitons are purported to be spin 1 particles, if i got that correct. i may have goofed again. rats. onward.

    so, strings seem to be, thus far, strictly, hypothetical entities, maybe of structure or not. we have to find out eventually.

    i am comforted by one comment in one thread that mentioned that to the effect a three dimensional string is not allowed, theoretically, which is consistent with my thought, here, that a sting comes with a minimum, my guess, dimension of 11 (eleven).

    let's see. what about the spin of a sting entity. will a graviton result upon the interface, or intra-face, of a boson, (Higgs Or Not Higgs) incidence of string and boson (o.k., Higgs Boson, or facimile) with an eleven dimensional string and a four dimensional Higgs Boson, even in Bose Einstein Statistical Mechanics Space, of some compatible Dimension ?

    More questions, as ever. By golly, this is really getting exciting !!!

    Are U following me. I am mostly simply only constructively, rambling. My only piton is jammed in the granite of an eleven dimensional string construct.

    An experimental physicist / mathematician will really be an asset hear. here or there whatever. regardless is is some fun: building blocks of string granite held in space-time by spin-0 gravitons a derivative spin 0 boson theory,

    it is possible !!!! personally thinking . What do U think ... maybe some time, soon. i could use a little feed-back in a damped oscillation (critically damped ..... more later,

    Steve.

    Gravitons are hypothetical Spin-2 particles.

    Strings are hypothetical 1-dimensional objects that move in an 11-dimensional space.

    How can a single dimentional object live in a multiple dimension world?
    Like in our 3+1 universe what true 1 dimensional object exists?

    They are not really 1-dimensional. Conventional strings are not really 1-dimensional either. We deal with conventional strings everyday--from the hair on our heads to strands of copper wire to optical fibers, etc. In the case of conventional strings, two dimensions are relatively small. The remaining dimension is sufficiently dominant that it can be considered to be the only dimension for most considerations. In the case of string theory, most of the dimensions are rolled-up and are small enough to be ignored for most considerations.
