Evidence for String Substructure
Abstract
Description
We argue that the behavior of string theory at high temperature and high longitudinal boosts, combined with the emergence of p-branes as necessary ingredients in various string dualities, point to a possible reformulation of strings, as well as p-branes, as composites of bits. We review the string-bit models, and suggest generalizations to incorporate p-branes.
