Particle physics, conceptual image. Particle physics is the study of the nature and interactions of the fundamental particles that make up the universe. Particles such as electrons and protons and neutrons form atoms. The full range of elementary particles is described by the Standard Model. The theory of particle physics includes the use of quantum mechanics, while experiments include the use of high-energy collisions in particle accelerators to produce new forms of matter. | |
