Twistor String theory is an equivalence between Super-Yang-Mills theory and the Topoplogical B model string theory in twistor spaceCite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).[1]. It was initially proposed by Witten in 2003. This is considered a major breakthrough by many as till Witten's 2003 paper, Twistor theory was only applicable to Classical General Relativity.
