In which of the String theory does the Higgs-'particle-force', dwell?
John said:A photon is said to have no mass. But what if a photon lives in a field of photon-sized particles? So that its mass is the same as the mass of space? (What if space itself has mass?)
Okay, but, Higgs particles address the fact that particles in objects that should not have mass do have mass. What if photons have mass as well? But their mass is the same as the mass of a "particle of space"? A Higgs particle is a particle inside a molecule or atom that would permeate the atom and neutralize the mass of a particle that is supposed to be massless.
The field density of objects and space has to be different, that is, the makeup of the space inside atoms and empty space has to be different. Using a "field density" that we expect to find in space we measure a particle in an object that is supposed to be massless, and it has mass. So the Higgs Field would be a field of particles inside an atom or molecule that has the same value as the carrier of the electro weak force: the way a photon, which might have mass as well, might be the same weight or value as space itself.
String theory is a theoretical framework in physics that attempts to reconcile the currently accepted theories of general relativity and quantum mechanics. It proposes that the fundamental building blocks of the universe are not particles, but tiny strings that vibrate at different frequencies.
The Higgs particle-force, also known as the Higgs boson, is a subatomic particle that is theorized to give all other particles in the universe their mass. It was first predicted by the Higgs mechanism in the 1960s and was finally discovered in 2012 by the Large Hadron Collider.
String theory incorporates the Higgs particle-force into its framework, as it is considered one of the fundamental particles in the theory. The Higgs particle-force is also crucial in string theory as it helps to explain the mass of the strings themselves.
String theory is important because it has the potential to unify all of physics and provide a complete understanding of the universe. It also has the potential to explain phenomena that cannot be explained by current theories, such as the existence of multiple dimensions and the nature of gravity.
While there is no direct evidence for string theory and the Higgs particle-force yet, there have been some indirect observations that support their existence. For example, the discovery of the Higgs boson provides evidence for the Higgs mechanism, which is a crucial component of string theory. Additionally, string theory has made predictions that align with current observations, such as the existence of multiple dimensions and the behavior of black holes.
