What is the problem with string theory – is it lack of data on ultra-high-energy cosmic rays? Is M-theory the proto-physics that is crazier than quantum mechanics? Are crazy cosmic ray detections the key to crazy string theory?
Suppose that a superstring exists with probability p at the center of a string tube in an observable universe and exists with probability q at the boundary of a string tube across alternate universes. By using a Feynman diagram 2nd order approximation to string theory, is it possible to explain dark energy? Could such an explanation lead to an M-theoretic analogue of the Casimir-Lifshitz effect?
If string theory truly unifies gravitational and electromagnetic energy, then would the unification look like a duality theorem in string mathematics? Would the mathematical duality theorem have an empirical proof in observational physics? Would Guth’s inflation be the gravitational part of the duality theorem? What would be the electromagnetic part of the duality theorem? Could the answer be the crazy emergence of paradigm-breaking photons?
Are Nambu and Witten like Newton and Einstein but lacking the experimental data to cut down the logical possibilities? Is the multiverse a Fredkin-Wolfram information process that computes strings, or is the multiverse something else? Why don’t string theorists tell people what the physical universe really is?
