Arthur d. S. Jr. Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 In String Theory, strings are loops of pure energy. But is it positivelly charged, negatively? How do we calculate that? And what would happen if a positively charged string colided with another? Thanks, Arthur Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swansont Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 If they are indeed pure energy, how can they have any of these other properties, like charge? They wouldn't be "pure" anymore. 14 minutes ago, Arthur d. S. Jr. said: How do we calculate that? The answer involves several years of graduate school.

Well, they are just pushing into another direction upon movement that is not change space a direction which we feel and define as charge and yes calculating that requires many math skills.

Vibrates another direction that is not (x,y,z), you know how gravity pushes into hyperspace this pushes into "Subspace" the other forces.

Sensei Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 (edited) Universe is made of quantum particles. Some particles have property such as rest-mass, which multiplied by c^2, can be converted (unit conversion) to potential energy of particle. That energy can be used for something, if particle will collide with its antiparticle (annihilation). If particle has charge Q= -1e = -1.602176565*10^-19 C (sometimes -1.6021766*10^-19 C in newer measurements, as its refined with time) then its antiparticle must have opposite charge Q=+1e = +1.602176565*10^-19 C (+1.6021766*10^-19 C). Annihilation does not mean total destruction like in sci-fi movies. It means that initial particle and antiparticle are destroyed and new bunch of particles are created instead. f.e. annihilation of electron-positron: [math]e^- + e^+ \rightarrow \gamma + \gamma + 1.022 MeV[/math] rest-mass of electron is me=510998.928 eV/c^2 rest-mass of positron (antiparticle of electron) is the same as electron me. After annihilation there are created two gamma photons, each with E=510998.928 eV. You can see that energy prior annihilation is equal to energy after annihilation. Charge of particles prior annihilation is equal to charge after annihilation. Photon energy equation (Planck equation) is E=hv (in English written E=hf (because f is abbreviation of frequency) ). We can covert it to frequency equation f=E/h = 510998.928 eV / 4.135667*10^-15 eV*s = 1.23559*10^20 Hz It's called Compton frequency fc = 1.23559*10^20 Hz Edited November 28, 2017 by Sensei Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Propagator" does not automatically mean movement. That's an equation for a Lagrangian. H is the Hamiltonian. That's all about energy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Strings would head towards B strings by the powers of eletro magnetism, when they collided, energy release happens and as consequence, explosion?

Vmedvil Posted November 29, 2017 Share Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) Exactly, but the energy is released as light particles called photons being neutral as charges cancel. Edited November 29, 2017 by Vmedvil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur d. S. Jr. Posted November 29, 2017 Author Share Posted November 29, 2017 Photons? So It's not harmful to nearby objects? Just light? And after that none of the A or B bodies exist anymore, at least only in light? Correct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Photons have different energies (momentum/frequency/wavelength).. High energy photon can destroy nucleus, can destroy atom, split it to free protons, free neutrons, can cause destruction of molecule, etc. etc. Gamma photon from annihilation of electron-positron pair, has 510998.928 eV energy, visible light green photon has 2.32 eV, that's > 220,000.0 (>220 thousands) more energy than middle of visible spectrum.. To start ionizing matter, you just need slightly above 3.2-3.5 eV, UV photon.. Gamma photon can destroy millions of molecules, prior it will be fully absorbed.
