Nuclear physics focuses on the atomic nucleus—the dense core of protons and neutrons at the center of every atom. Fundamental Nuclear and Particle Physics Section
Unlocking the Universe: The Foundations of Nuclear and Particle Physics Foundations of nuclear and particle physics
: This is the current "rulebook" of the universe, describing 12 matter particles (fermions) and four force carriers (bosons). Nuclear physics focuses on the atomic nucleus—the dense
: These combine to form heavier particles like protons and neutrons (baryons) and mesons. Particle physics is the study of the elementary
Particle physics is the study of the elementary building blocks of matter and radiation. At this scale, we move beyond atoms to the truly fundamental particles that have no substructure.
: The Standard Model explains three of the four known forces: electromagnetism, the strong force (which binds nuclei), and the weak force (responsible for radioactive decay). Gravity remains the outlier that physicists are still working to integrate. 2. The Heart of the Matter: Nuclear Physics
: These carry the fundamental forces, such as the photon for electromagnetism and the Higgs boson, which gives other particles their mass.
