High School Vibration Patterns of Strings within Quarks?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the feasibility of observing vibration patterns of strings within quarks as proposed by String Theory. It highlights the theoretical nature of String Theory and the significant energy requirements needed to detect string excitations, which exceed the capabilities of current particle colliders. No documented studies linking string vibrations to particle production were identified, emphasizing the challenges in experimental verification of these theoretical concepts.

Is it possible to study/observe the virbation patterns of a string within a quark?
I understang that String Theory is a theoretical framework, however is it possible to make an observation linking the vibrations of the strings within the quarks to the particles produced?
If so, has there even been such a documented study?

In theory, string excitations could show up, but in most models the energy needed to detectably excite the strings is far beyond what colliders can produce.
 

Thread 'Questioning the timescape model'

"Supernovae evidence for foundational change to cosmological models" https://arxiv.org/pdf/2412.15143 The paper claims: We compare the standard homogeneous cosmological model, i.e., spatially flat ΛCDM, and the timescape cosmology which invokes backreaction of inhomogeneities. Timescape, while statistically homogeneous and isotropic, departs from average Friedmann-Lemaître-Robertson-Walker evolution, and replaces dark energy by kinetic gravitational energy and its gradients, in explaining...
