Modern particle physics research is focused on subatomic particles, including atomic constituents such as electrons, protons, and neutrons(protons and neutrons are composite particles called baryons, made of quarks), produced by radioactive and scattering processes, Following the convention of particle physicists, elementary particles refer to objects such aselectrons and photons as it is well known that those types of particles display wave-like properties as well. For the first time, Participants will examine the products of collisions of elementary particles traveling at close to the speed of light, racing through a 27-kilometer-circumference accelerator. "Particle physics is the exploration of matter and energy at the smallest and fastest scales, and modern accelerators and detectors aid in our discovery of nature's elementary constituents and understanding of their properties. "International Hands-on Particle Physics Masterclasses are a unique opportunity for students to work elbow-to-elbow with scientists and get a taste of how modern research in physics works," says Michael Kobel, physics professor from Technical University Dresden. A lepton is a fundamental constituent of matter i.e. 1.1 INTRODUCTION Modern particle physics research is based on subatomic particles, including atomic constituents such as electrons, protons, and 2.1 Leptons. Without Higgs Boson, scientists could not fathom how elementary particles have mass at all. That said, I really liked “Facts and Mysteries in Elementary Particle Physics”, by Martinus Veltman. Ballentine (1989), Quantum Mechanics: A Modern Development (in place of Sakurai, which is too disorganized). The objective of modern science is to prove where the Higgs Boson particles originate.
