Difference between M-theory and Type II string theory

M-theory vs. Type II string theory

M-theory is a theory in physics that unifies all consistent versions of superstring theory. In theoretical physics, type II string theory is a unified term that includes both type IIA strings and type IIB strings theories.

Similarities between M-theory and Type II string theory

M-theory and Type II string theory have 15 things in common (in Unionpedia): AdS/CFT correspondence, Chirality (physics), Edward Witten, Heterotic string theory, Juan Martín Maldacena, Michael Duff (physicist), N = 4 supersymmetric Yang–Mills theory, Paul Townsend, S-duality, String (physics), Supergravity, Superstring theory, Supersymmetry, T-duality, Type I string theory.

AdS/CFT correspondence

In theoretical physics, the anti-de Sitter/conformal field theory correspondence, sometimes called Maldacena duality or gauge/gravity duality, is a conjectured relationship between two kinds of physical theories.

Supergravity

In theoretical physics, supergravity (supergravity theory; SUGRA for short) is a modern field theory that combines the principles of supersymmetry and general relativity where supersymmetry obeys locality; in contrast to non-gravitational supersymmetric theories such as the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model.

Superstring theory

Superstring theory is an attempt to explain all of the particles and fundamental forces of nature in one theory by modeling them as vibrations of tiny supersymmetric strings.

Supersymmetry

In particle physics, supersymmetry (SUSY) is a theory that proposes a relationship between two basic classes of elementary particles: bosons, which have an integer-valued spin, and fermions, which have a half-integer spin.
