people have thought about the fundamental particles from which all
matter is made, starting with the gradual development of atomic theory,
followed by a deeper understanding of the quantized atom, leading
to the recent theory of the Standard Model.
We invite you to explore this history of particle physics with a focus on the scientists and thinkers who helped shape the field of particle physics. The four sections are arranged chronologically. You can use the index to find more information about a specific person or event. |
