Are strings thermostrings?
Abstract
In the method of thermostring quantization the time evolution of point particles at finite temperature kT is described in a geometric manner. The temperature paths of particles are represented as closed (thermo)strings, which are swept surfaces in a space-time-temperature manifold. The method makes it possible a new physical interpretation of superstrings IIA and heterotic strings as point particles in a thermal bath with Planck temperature.
