Mass Scales of the String Unification
Abstract
Although mass scales associated with string tension, compactification of extra dimension, and Newtonian gravity are a priori independent, these scales must be approximately equal to each other in any unified string theory with realistic couplings. Consequently, the compactification cannot be adequately described in terms of ten-dimensional field theory.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
