Superstrings or quantum entanglement concept illustration. Fractal illustration suggesting swirling filaments in the image suggest the concept of a quantum entanglement, a quantum computer or a multi layered matrix. Superstring theory is an attempt to explain all of the particles and fundamental forces of nature in one theory by modelling them as vibrations of tiny supersymmetric strings. Superstring theory is a shorthand for supersymmetric string theory because unlike bosonic string theory, it is the version of string theory that incorporates fermions and supersymmetry. Since the second superstring revolution the five superstring theories are regarded as different limits of a single theory tentatively called M-theory, or simply string theory.
