| May 25, 2022 at 12:58 | comment | added | Eden Zane | Well, then what about the massless states? Are strings representing massless particles tension-less? | |
| May 25, 2022 at 12:55 | comment | added | Qmechanic♦ | Well, the mass-squares of string states are proportional to $T_0$, cf. pt. 3. | |
| May 25, 2022 at 12:50 | comment | added | Eden Zane | The string tension $T_0$ has nothing to do with the mass of the particle, right? or is there any proportionality with the mass? | |
