有若干迹象显示
宇宙重力波可能可以用来证实弦论的预测
例如异空间(extra dimensions)
Gravitational waves are ripples in space–time that are created when massive
objects are accelerated under certain conditions. Andriot and Lucena Gómez
calculate that adding N extra dimensions to 4D space–time results in a “
breathing-mode” oscillation that would be present in a gravitational wave.
The second distinct feature of extra dimensions, say the researchers, is a
discrete set of higher-frequency signals accompanying a gravitational wave.

重力波的散射侦测宇宙弦
a group of scientists has claimed that we can use gravitational waves—and
the way they scatter throughout space—to detect cosmic strings once and for
all. Since cosmic strings act as tiny bundles of spacetime, they’re strong
enough to thwart a gravitational wave’s path, and send it scattering in a
different direction. That diffraction pattern could reveal cosmic strings.

如果宇宙大爆炸前时空是一个点
那表示目前的宇宙时空点集彼此曾经是彼此关联的
而现在是以异空间extra dimensions的方式形成量子纠缠
希格斯机制在弦论是快子凝聚现象
宇宙初期的量子真空涨落可能是一种拓朴相
