sol,

Right, the harmonics of a string wound around a compact dimension are formally the same as DeBroglies harmonics of a matter wave around an atomic orbit. For that matter the same formal structure was found by Rossby in the patterns of high and low air presssure circling around the North Pole.

Regards,

Dick
