String theory provides a compact integral expression for the tree-level scattering amplitude of an arbitrary number of light strings. We focus on amplitudes involving a few tachyons and many photons, with a special choice of polarizations and kinematics. We pick out a particular pole in the amplitude -- one corresponding to successive photon scatterings, which lead to an intermediate state with a highly excited string in a definite state. This provides a physical process which creates a highly excited string. The observed erratic behavior of the amplitude suggests that this may serve as a simple and explicit illustration of chaos in many-particle scattering.

  1. Bootstrapping black holes at low impact parameter

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    After eikonal subtraction, finite-grid SDR bootstrap extremal spectra support a cap-saturated black-hole-scale band and Regge-like ridge while leaving the intervening gap mostly empty.

  2. Bootstrapping black holes at low impact parameter

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    After subtracting the eikonal carrier, the residual SDR spectrum in six dimensions organizes into a cap-saturated low-impact band, an empty gap, and Regge-like ridges whose weak-coupling edge is the G_N=0 baseline.

  3. Higher-dimensional chaotic features and random matrix signatures following a local quench

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 5.0

    Extrema of local-quench two-point functions in free 1+1 and 2+1 scalar theory show soft-to-GOE nearest-neighbor repulsion and geometry-dominated all-pair form factors.
