Modern elementary particle physics Gordon L. Kane
Publisher: Westview Press

In quantum mechanics we have the unifying idea that everything in the universe is made up of relativistic quantum fields that correspond to elementary particles and which I will refer to in the future as simply fields. PHYSICS | EXTRA REFERENCE PHYSICS NOTES ON ELEMENTARY PARTICLES CLASS 11 AND 12 File Type : DOC File Size : 83 KB Elementary Particles : The term elementary particles signify the particles of structureless and those can not be constructed from other particles. The Swerve: How the World Became Modern. 4 The Past 25 Years: Establishing the Standard Model 52. The World of Elementary-Particle Physics Circa 1972, 52. Do some or all of the following statements strike you as true? One of the important modern ideas of forces is that forces between particles arise from the exchange of particles. Discovery of the Tau Lepton, 59. Present model of the constituents of matter is that which are structuresless and point like. A prime objective of the biggest and most expensive scientific experiment in history is detection of the Higgs particle, speculated to be the generator of mass for elementary particles. We go from planets, which behave like actual objects with independent existence, to things like atoms and elementary particles, which are much more mathematical, less like anything “physical” we have experience with. Everything is made of invisible particles (e.g., atoms). These elementary particles of matter are eternal. It seems that all of the matter that makes up It goes into different particles, like bosons, which often cary forces and their relations to fermions which are elementary particles like electrons. Discovery of the Charm Quark, 59. These fields are wavy-like vibrations and differ from classical waves in According to the emerging modern consensus, there are no particles in the classical sense, just these fields. From ancient philosophers like Epicurus who knew of tiny atoms that were invisible to the human eye, to Plato who was aware of the immaterial world, physical and non-physical all the way up to modern metaphysics and philosophy.
