Pardon me. I claim ignorance. Where do strings 'exist'? Either? 'String Space'? If so, is there space between on string and the next? What, if anything 'fills' the 'void'(s)? How can strings be fundamental if they have to lay in (some) dimension(s)? Do strings define themselves? If not, what defines strings?

Strings, in the context of computer programming, exist within the memory of a computer. They are a sequence of characters stored in a specific location within the computer's memory. This location is often referred to as the "string space", and it is where the computer stores and manipulates strings.

There is technically no physical space between strings, as they are simply a series of characters stored in memory. However, in a visual representation of strings, there may appear to be space between them.

As for what fills the void between strings, it is simply empty memory space. This space is not filled with any physical matter, but rather it is utilized for storing and organizing data.

Strings can be considered fundamental in the sense that they are a basic data type in computer programming. They are essential for storing and manipulating text-based data. However, they do not exist in a physical dimension. They are simply a concept and tool used in computer programming.

Strings do not define themselves. They are defined by the programmer who creates them and assigns values to them. In this sense, the programmer is the one who defines strings and their purpose within a program.
 
Thread 'LQG Legend Writes Paper Claiming GR Explains Dark Matter Phenomena'
A new group of investigators are attempting something similar to Deur's work, which seeks to explain dark matter phenomena with general relativity corrections to Newtonian gravity is systems like galaxies. Deur's most similar publication to this one along these lines was: One thing that makes this new paper notable is that the corresponding author is Giorgio Immirzi, the person after whom the somewhat mysterious Immirzi parameter of Loop Quantum Gravity is named. I will be reviewing the...
I seem to notice a buildup of papers like this: Detecting single gravitons with quantum sensing. (OK, old one.) Toward graviton detection via photon-graviton quantum state conversion Is this akin to “we’re soon gonna put string theory to the test”, or are these legit? Mind, I’m not expecting anyone to read the papers and explain them to me, but if one of you educated people already have an opinion I’d like to hear it. If not please ignore me. EDIT: I strongly suspect it’s bunk but...
