The Elegant Universe Summary

The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene (first 150 pages)
The book starts out talking about Albert Einstein’s general relativity, and quantum mechanics on understanding the universe, and how only one could be right not both. Greene began to talk about string theory which is a collection of concepts in which the point like particles of particle physics are switched by one dimensional object called strings. String theory says the particle properties are a reflection of the various ways in which string can vibrate. The strings are really small, way smaller than an atomic nucleus; they vibrate different patterns which produce different particle property. String theory links quantum mechanics and Einstein’s general relativity together by taking some elements from each theory and putting them together.
I have never heard of the string theory to me that is interesting. Because I have never thought of connecting Albert Einstein’s general relativity and quantum mechanics being together, but I think that’s because I haven’t really learned anything about it in high school. What interests me the most is that Einstein’s theory was published in 1916 and quantum mechanics
He also talked about string theory. Where I picked off from Greene is still talking about string theory and where Greene talks about it like it’s too good to be wrong. Greene began to talk about Supersymmetry which is used to describe theories that bring together four forces of nature. When Supersymmetry was discovered it helped solve all of the wrong things with the first idea of string theory. The book starts to go into theories from a lot of string theorist trying to prove string theory, but it’s extremely difficult for everyone. A lot of people doubt string theory, especially because the string theory cannot be proved experimentally. String theory has to do with physics and a lot of high level
