Basics
So what is string theory? For that matter, what the heck are elementary
particles? If this all sounds totally confusing, try this section
first.
Experiment
What progress are physicists making towards experimental tests of
string theory predictions?
Mathematics
What kinds of math do string theorists use and why? And how has string
theory changed mathematics?
Black
Holes
Personal safety issues aside, when black holes are tied up in strings,
they get even more interesting.
Cosmology
Was there a String Bang before the Big Bang, or did the Universe simply
unwind?
