A String Theory for Particle Quanta
In my book on aether physics, I propose that inertial matter is created from photons through electron-positron pair production, a process that transforms photons into electron-positron pairs. Thus, a single compact particle expands into two bloated nets.

Particles as bloated nets or tight bundles
This suggests that particle quanta are made up of strings that are either tightly bound or inflated into nets.
In their tightly bound state, strings connect together to form neutrinos and photons.
In their inflated state, strings form electrons and positrons, which in turn combine to produce atoms with atomic nuclei and associated electrons.

Particles as pairs of strings
If we choose to go with this model, we can further deduce the composition of particle quanta.
With only three types of particle quanta, we know that each quantum has to be constituted of exactly two strings.
Neutral quanta, which are an equal mix of positive and negative, are bundles of one positive and one negative string.
Positive quanta consist of two positive strings, and negative quanta consist of two negative strings.

From this, it is clear that it is the strings that give particle quanta their texture.
Positive strings have an abrasive texture, and negative strings have a woolly texture.
The composition of the aether
If we further assume that assemblies of particle quanta are random, we can conclude that there must be two neutral particle quanta for every positive and negative quantum pair.
This follows from a simple consideration of all possible combinations of strings:
- negative + negative = negative particle quantum
- positive + positive = positive particle quantum
- positive + negative = neutral particle quantum (neutrino)
- negative + positive = neutral particle quantum (neutrino)
Since positive and negative particle quanta only exist as part of some larger assembly, we get that the number of neutrinos in the aether must be at least 6 times more than photons.
This is because every photon consists of 3 positive and 3 negative particle quanta. So, for every photon there are six free neutral particle quanta.

However, the relative number of neutrinos are even larger because many photons are converted into inertial matter through electron-positron production.
With a lot of photons tied up in inertial matter, there are correspondingly fewer photons to make up the aether.
So the aether contains more than six zero-point neutrinos for every zero-point photon.
