In particle-accelerator experiments, physicists observed that the angular momentum of a hadron is exactly proportional to the square of its energy.
In order to account for these "Regge trajectories," physicists turned to a model where each hadron was in fact a rotating string, moving in accordance with Einstein's special theory of relativity.

In the late 1960s, an Italian physicist named Gabriele Veneziano was looking for a new approach to the description of the strong force, and came across a set of equations created by the 19th-century Swiss mathematician Leonard Euler that seemed to be remarkably convenient for describing particle interactions.
In the course of their efforts, the two physicists came to an interesting revelation: string theory could encompass the graviton, the mysterious undiscovered messenger particle of gravity.
In 1979, however, Schwartz was on a visit to CERN and ran into a British physicist, Michael B. Green (born 1946) of the University of London, who was a fellow string-theory diehard.

 Strung Out
A mathematician by training and inclination, he is peeved, evidently, at the sloppy way in which physicists have made use of mathematics, and thinks that if physicists persuaded themselves to think more ­rigorously—­more like real mathematicians, that ­is—­they could reason their way out of ­trouble.
He has a deep knowledge of the history of physics, and understands that physicists have always been a little cavalier in their use of mathematics.
He focuses instead on the conceptual puzzles that physicists face, and emphasizes, as Woit does not, that string theory from the outset possessed serious deficiencies in its ability to address certain crucial ­issues.

In particle-accelerator experiments, physicists observed that the spin of a hadron is never larger than a certain multiple of the square of its energy.
This first superstring revolution was started by a discovery of anomaly cancellation in type I string theory by Michael Green and John Schwarz in 1984.
When physicists study the quantum behavior of electromagnetism, they can't solve the whole theory exactly, because every particle may emit and receive many other particles, which may also do the same, endlessly.

Michael Green, 51 yrs, Scientist in Perth, Western Australia.
Richard Feynman, he was a theoretical physicist and I admire his awe inspiring capacity to understand physics and to be able to explain it to lesser minds...

For instance, the first family consists of quarks called the "up" and "down" quarks, and the second family is the "strange" and "charmed" quarks, and the third family is the "bottom" and "top" quarks.
The charm quark was discovered in 1974, for instance, before the evidence for the existence of quarks was really in hand -- before physicists were really convinced that experimentally we knew for sure there were quarks.
But from a physicist's point of view, I say that it's very likely that the vast underlying object is Nature, because of the fact that all these different classification schemes that have been, so far, brought into the "A-D-E" set-up, relate to physics: they're all important mathematical-physics objects.
