No. Just good old fashioned light, radio waves, and thermal radiation. It's a "classical" view of the interaction of static and moving charges (currents), with coupled electric and magnetic fields as described by Maxwell's four famous equations that have been around since about 1860 or therabouts. Just laboratory observation and college level calculus. No quantum theory, no string theory.

RE: "electromagnetic waves-is that string theory?"

.. based entirely upon radio interviews on that show that shall never again be mentioned by me -- yes string theory uses electromagnetic waves. Mostly theoretical physicist Michio Kaku. I understand that he in also on TV a lot. I do not have TV

OT on religion is interesting -- for me this is religion, my faith is that we are our Creator's "video game" and can no more understand the Creator than characters created by human programmers can understand humans.
