i know that superstrings are one dimensional objects but
are superstring a compression of matter of energy?

No. They are not made of matter.
 
what are they made out of... intriguing

They are abstract math concepts.

You are speaking kind of loosely. The tension integrated along their length give us the energy which is equal to their mass. Is this a pulling tension or a pushing tension? And what gives rise to this tension? Does the tension come from the space-time metric trying to adjust itself to some "normal" condition? Thanks.
 
forgive my lay-person-ness- but my understanding of strings is that they are like tire-tracks- in that they are an emergent effect of the intersectoon/interaction of more fundamental items/processes/relationships- like "sums-over-world-sheets" or something? :confused:

Thread 'Gravitational self-interaction: another attempt to replace Dark Matter'

https://arxiv.org/pdf/2503.09804 From the abstract: ... Our derivation uses both EE and the Newtonian approximation of EE in Part I, to describe semi-classically in Part II the advection of DM, created at the level of the universe, into galaxies and clusters thereof. This advection happens proportional with their own classically generated gravitational field g, due to self-interaction of the gravitational field. It is based on the universal formula ρD =λgg′2 for the densityρ D of DM...

Thread 'Twistors and celestial holography'

Many of us have heard of "twistors", arguably Roger Penrose's biggest contribution to theoretical physics. Twistor space is a space which maps nonlocally onto physical space-time; in particular, lightlike structures in space-time, like null lines and light cones, become much more "local" in twistor space. For various reasons, Penrose thought that twistor space was possibly a more fundamental arena for theoretical physics than space-time, and for many years he and a hardy band of mostly...
