Thermostring quantization. An interpretation of strings as particles at finite temperatures
Abstract
In a space-temperature configurational manifold an instantaneous temperature path of a point particle can be represented as a string of length L=1/kT (thermostring). The thermostring swepts a surface in the space-time-temperature manifold at its temporal evolution. The thermostring is closed, its points can be rearranged and the charge is distributed along the length. Some predictions of this method for statistical mechanics and string theories are discussed.
