Delta-function Interactions for the Bosonic and Spinning Strings and the Generation of Abelian Gauge Theory
James P. Edwards, Paul Mansfield
We construct contact interactions for bosonic and spinning strings. In the tensionless limit of the spinning string this reproduces the super-Wilson loop that couples spinor matter…

The Fermion Content of the Standard Model
Paul Mansfield
We describe a simple model that automatically generates the sum over gauge group representations and chiralities of a single generation of fermions in the Standard Model, augmented…

QED as the tensionless limit of the spinning string with contact interaction
James P. Edwards, Paul Mansfield
We outline how QED with spinor matter can be described by the tensionless limit of spinning strings with contact interactions. The strings represent electric lines of force with ch…
