Explain string theory -- I'm interested in interpritations

[Robert Fenhagen]

Hello all!

I am trying to get a more reliable definition, plus, any opinions you might offer would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks, but I tend to steer clear of Wikipedia.

Welcome to the PF. You can start there, and follow the links at the bottom to more fundamental sources of the information.

Also, try a PF Search to see what threads you can find here.

Thanks, but I tend to steer clear of Wikipedia.

For general information, like definitions, it is pretty reliable.

BTW, what is your PhD in, Robert?

We are not supposed to discuss questions here on the New Member Introduction forum, so please ask on another forum (general physics would be my guess.) I'm going to close this thread.

But @Robert Fenhagen , check the references at the bottom of any Wikepedia article. They often lead to more acceptable sources.
