How does the concept of mass decay relate to the theory of superstrings?

Click For Summary
The discussion explores the relationship between mass decay and superstring theory, questioning how a one-dimensional string can exist outside our three-dimensional understanding of matter. It highlights that strings, as fundamental entities, exist before matter and can sweep out a two-dimensional "world sheet" in spacetime. The conversation also touches on the concept of branes, which are multi-dimensional structures that may constitute spacetime, and the necessity of extra dimensions for consistent string theory quantization. Participants express skepticism about the complexity of string theories and propose simpler models, emphasizing the interconnectedness of quantum phenomena without invoking a "Universal Scissor." Overall, the dialogue reflects a search for a coherent understanding of the fundamental nature of reality through string theory and its implications.

And those forces come with preset values? That's what I'm asking.

It is hard to measure.

0 1 dimension, it is hard to measure for ever. :cry:

There have been no "real" values established for anything.

There has been no answer to what, how and why... anything exists or functions.

Bunch of relative stuff... no absolute(s).

? You mean why is the weaker than the strong force and so on? Partly it's because the weak force is carried by massive particles (the W+, W- and Z0 bosons), while the strong force is carried by massless gluons.
Hmm... No, I mean all of the "predefined" numbers in existence. Like how much mass is needed to "bend" space-time for example?

What if all of this is wrong and one key piece of info is missing that explains things in different three dimensional terms? Mass decays due to heat and pressure, density, into an incomprehendibly small gravitational wave creating the actions of time and space? The sychronization of each masses waves brings objects together. Acceleration between the point of origin's of the evaporating waves affects time relative to each body and yet each body independently is not effected do to each body being a separate point of origin of the wave being generated with undetectibly small amounts of mass being transferred to the monopole energy of the gravitational wave. Black holes would have to evaporate for someone to notice! Or do they?
