High School Vibration Patterns of Strings within Quarks?

Click For Summary
The discussion explores the possibility of observing vibration patterns of strings within quarks, as proposed by String Theory. It questions whether there is a way to link these string vibrations to the particles produced. While theoretical models suggest that string excitations could be detectable, the energy required to observe these phenomena exceeds current collider capabilities. The conversation highlights the lack of documented studies on this specific observation. Overall, the feasibility of studying string vibrations within quarks remains a significant challenge in theoretical physics.

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.
 
This is an alert about a claim regarding the standard model, that got a burst of attention in the past two weeks. The original paper came out last year: "The electroweak η_W meson" by Gia Dvali, Archil Kobakhidze, Otari Sakhelashvili (2024) The recent follow-up and other responses are "η_W-meson from topological properties of the electroweak vacuum" by Dvali et al "Hiding in Plain Sight, the electroweak η_W" by Giacomo Cacciapaglia, Francesco Sannino, Jessica Turner "Astrophysical...
