Supporting String Theory for Quantizing Gravity

Vedika Bansal

Abstract: This paper explores string theory as a promising candidate for quantizing gravity - a long-standing challenge in theoretical physics due to the incompatibility between general relativity and quantum mechanics. The study begins with a foundational overview of spacetime and Einstein's field equations, followed by the principles of quantum mechanics and quantum field theory. It highlights the limitations of existing frameworks in describing gravity at quantum scales and discusses how string theory addresses these issues through concepts such as extra dimensions, supersymmetry, and the graviton. Theoretical and experimental challenges are acknowledged, with a dedicated section on the potential future scope of validating string theory. To aid comprehension, the paper includes graphs and diagrams that help illustrate complex concepts such as curved spacetime, string vibrations, and the structure of higher dimensions.
