Four String Amplitudes for the Generalized Protostring
Charles B. Thorn
We specialize the string scattering amplitudes for the generalized protostring to . This allows for a much more detailed and explicit study of their basic physical and mat…
String Bit Description of Antiperiodic Fermion Worldsheet Fields
Charles B. Thorn
We study a string bit Hamiltonian whose continuum limit describes anti-periodic (AP) anti-commuting worldsheet fields. We calculate the amplitude for transitions between an AP spin…
Heisenberg spin chain as a worldsheet coordinate for lightcone quantized string
Charles B. Thorn
Although the energy spectrum of the Heisenberg spin chain on a circle defined by is well known for any f…
Internal and Super Symmetry in String Bit Models
Charles B. Thorn
We study in a general way the construction of string bit Hamiltonians which are supersymmetric, We construct several quadratic and quartic polynomials in string bit creation and an…
Color Characters for White Hot String Bits
Thomas L. Curtright, Sourav Raha, Charles B. Thorn
The state space of a generic string bit model is spanned by matrix creation operators acting on a vacuum state. Such creation operators transform in the adjoint represe…
Scientific Biography of Stanley Mandelstam, Part I: 1955-1980
Charles B. Thorn
I review Stanley Mandelstam's many contributions to particle physics, quantum field theory and string theory covering the years 1955 through 1980. His more recent work will be revi…
