Húrelmélet is a theoretical framework in physics that posits that the fundamental constituents of the universe are not point-like particles, but rather one-dimensional vibrating strings. These strings are thought to be incredibly small, on the order of the Planck length, and their different modes of vibration correspond to different types of particles, such as electrons, quarks, and photons. The theory aims to unify all fundamental forces of nature, including gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces, into a single, coherent description.

One of the most significant developments in string theory is the idea of supersymmetry, which suggests that every known fundamental particle has a heavier, undiscovered "superpartner" particle. The existence of these superpartners is a prediction of supersymmetry, which is often incorporated into string theory models. Furthermore, string theory requires the existence of extra spatial dimensions beyond the familiar three dimensions of space and one of time. These extra dimensions are believed to be curled up or compactified to an extremely small size, making them undetectable in everyday experience.

There are several different versions of string theory, including Type I, Type IIA, Type IIB, and the two heterotic string theories (SO(32) and E8xE8). These theories were eventually shown to be different aspects of a more encompassing theory known as M-theory, which is thought to operate in 11 dimensions. While string theory has not yet been experimentally verified, it remains a leading candidate for a "theory of everything" due to its mathematical elegance and its potential to resolve some of the deepest mysteries in physics. Researchers continue to explore its implications and search for potential observational signatures.
