What is the best argument for strings' existence, in BOTH Mathematics and English, please!?

Question

Advanced math okay (wanted).

I'm looking for regular, everyday physicists' language—not doctored up, textbook style language found in web search hits. =)

Answer 1

Because you cannot have an argument without a modulus.
You aren't seriouly suggesting that this text box is capable of the type of mathematics that it would take to prove string theory, so I suppose you will accept a wordy explanation. String Theory is the reason that I study Philosophy. The only way a person can hope to understand quantum mechanics and post-modern theories et al is by freeing up your mind and letting go of all the laws and constrictions that you learned in Math and science class. Abstract concepts do not have a why they just are, and the faster we can accept that the faster we can move through the material. Abstract theories, can of course be proven by Mathematics, but not in yahoo answers.
So, relax, let the strings flow, and pick up a little Des Carte, or Jean Paul Sartre...Simon Beauvoir is also another goody. Good Luck.

Answer 2

Physicists are perfectionists. They want things to work out neatly or they are not satisfied. The previous working models of forces, especially sub-atomic (weak and strong ones) loosely matched with their concept of electromagnetic force. However, they felt that it should also match with gravitational force. And that's where the trouble began.. It wasn't until they developped string theory, or more specifically M theory, that they saw a slight chance of a common theory to explain all forces using the same "language".

Go to a search engine and type in
string theory evidence

or superstrings evidence and you will get tons of hits.
