Kaluza-Klein theory can be extended to cover the other fundamental forces - namely, the weak and [strong forces]?, but a straightforward approach runs into difficulties involving chirality. Moreover the theory as it stands does not deal with quantum effects. However, the same approach to unification of forces is taken by some more modern theories, notably string theory and the related M-theory. |

I have created a new page - chirality - and have added chemical meaning but I do not know + could not find physics meaning for it. |
