Quatum Fields, Strings, and Parallel Universe

Hi I know I have been asking many questions. It seems this stuff is a lot more difficult than I thought so:

1.) Is the Quantum Field the field responsible for the creation of forces and particles, if not what does it say in a nutshell.

2.) If there are parallel universes do they affect each other or exist independently, if they do how so.

3.) Do the strings in string theory come from some type of field? If not where do they come from.

Thanks a bunch guys.

1) Yes.
2) If they exist, they exist independently.
3) It is not yet known. Currently, the most popular idea is that strings come out from M-theory, but nobody actually knows what M-theory really is.

If a "parallel universe" has no way of interacting with our own universe, then it does not exist in any scientific sense of the word. In the naive sense inexplicably popularized on the History channel, no, parallel universes cannot exist. If you don't interact with the universe, you don't get to be in any respected scientific theory.

Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
