Moreover, string theory does not necessarily say that the Standard Model is wrong, but rather that it is an incomplete description of the fundamental forces and particles.

Is this a haiku??
String theory, if it has any value, deals only with physics at extremely high energy, near the Planck scale. It doesn't tell us anything about what to expect from LHC results, and the LHC does not help us understand string theory.

You need more WHAT ?
Your question doesn't make any sense, so it is difficult to know what it is you intend to ask.

specific i want to know is
higgs give mass to particle but
string also say it can choose
mass by vibration
and somebody say string theory
made assume standars is wrong
i am curious about these two

Higgs mechanism is an interaction which gives mass to some massless particles. This can be achieved in string theory: some string states are massless, but then acquire mass through Higgs mechanism. String states which are intrinsically massive are mostly multiples of the Planck mass so they are short-lived and far beyond detection.
Related to Superstring Theory: Latest Discoveries & Implications
1. What is Superstring Theory?
Superstring Theory, also known as String Theory, is a theoretical framework in physics that attempts to explain the fundamental nature of the universe by describing the behavior of subatomic particles as tiny, vibrating strings instead of point-like particles. It is considered a potential candidate for a theory of everything, as it aims to unify all known forces and particles in a single, coherent framework.
2. What are the latest discoveries in Superstring Theory?
Some of the latest discoveries in Superstring Theory include the identification of new types of particles called supersymmetric particles, the realization that there are more than three dimensions of space, and the development of new mathematical tools to solve complex string-theoretic equations. Researchers are also investigating the implications of Superstring Theory for black holes and the Big Bang.
3. What are the implications of Superstring Theory?
The implications of Superstring Theory are far-reaching and have the potential to revolutionize our understanding of the universe. If proven correct, it would provide a unified framework for the four fundamental forces of nature: gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear force, and weak nuclear force. It could also potentially resolve the conflict between quantum mechanics and general relativity, and shed light on phenomena such as dark matter and dark energy.
4. How is Superstring Theory being tested?
Since Superstring Theory is a purely theoretical framework, it cannot be directly tested with experiments. However, scientists are using various indirect methods to test its predictions, such as studying the properties of particles at high energies, observing the cosmic microwave background radiation, and analyzing the behavior of black holes. These experiments are crucial in determining the validity of Superstring Theory.
5. Is Superstring Theory widely accepted in the scientific community?
The acceptance of Superstring Theory in the scientific community is a topic of debate. While some scientists believe it has the potential to be a theory of everything, others criticize it for lacking empirical evidence and being too complex. Despite this, Superstring Theory continues to be actively researched and has gained significant interest and support from many prominent physicists and mathematicians.
