I. What is String Theory?
... In addition to fundamental strings, superstring theory predicts the existence of objects with p spatial dimensions, called p-branes. (The fundamental string is a 1-brane.) The values of p that can occur depend on the theory. Since the dimension of space is large (9 or 10), the allowed values of p ca ...
