SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the concept of light being related to string theory, where every fundamental particle is represented as a vibrating string rather than a point or sphere. Chris Walters confirms that string theory supports this notion, suggesting that the geometry of these strings could explain various physical phenomena, including pair creation, particle geometry, and gravitational forces. The conversation also references WFHagen's Energiewirbel as a potential framework for understanding string geometry, indicating a possible intersection between different theoretical approaches.

I am asking is light as it is related to particles could be (wave/particle theory)
could be composed of strings.

Has anyone seen any publications or authors who support this idea?

Geometry?

Is there any convergence upon a geometry of these vibrating strings? I've often thought WFHagen's Engergiewirbel could be thought of as string geometry - though I'm not sure he would agree. What I found exciting was that this single force vector (string?) could be used explain pair creation/anilliation, particle geometry, weak and strong NF, and even gravity. I would think the string community would resonate with it. :)
