    Particle - Wikipedia

    • In the physical sciences, a particle (or corpuscule in older texts) is a small localized object which can be described by several physical or chemical properties, such as volume, density, or mass. They vary greatly in size or quantity, from subatomic particles like the electron, to microscopic particles like atoms and molecules, to macroscopic particles li… See more

    N-body simulation

    In computational physics, N-body simulations (also called N-particle simulations) are simulations of dynamical systems of particles under the influence of certain conditions, such as being subject to gravity. … See more

    Distribution of particles

    Colloidal particles are the components of a colloid. A colloid is a substance microscopically dispersed evenly throughout another substance. Such colloidal system can be solid, liquid, or gaseous; … See more

    Elementary particle - Wikipedia

    In particle physics, an elementary particle or fundamental particle is a subatomic particle that is not composed of other particles. [1] The Standard Model presently recognizes seventeen distinct particles—twelve fermions and five bosons.

    What is a particle in physics?
    Particles are often represented as dots. This figure could represent the movement of atoms in a gas, people in crowds or stars in the night sky. The concept of particles is particularly useful when modelling nature, as the full treatment of many phenomena can be complex and also involve difficult computation. [ 4 ]

    What is an elementary particle in particle physics?
    In particle physics, an elementary particle is a particle which cannot be split up into smaller pieces. There are many different types of particles, with different particle sizes and properties. Macroscopic particles are particles that are larger than atoms or molecules. They have volume and shape.

    What is a particle used for?
    Particles can also be used to create scientific models of even larger objects depending on their density, such as humans moving in a crowd or celestial bodies in motion. The term particle is rather general in meaning, and is refined as needed by various scientific fields.

    What is the standard model of particle physics?
    The Standard Model of particle physics contains 12 flavors of elementary fermions, plus their corresponding antiparticles, as well as elementary bosons that mediate the forces and the Higgs boson, which was reported on July 4, 2012, as having been likely detected by the two main experiments at the Large Hadron Collider(ATLASand CMS).

    What is a particle in quantum field theory?
    Interactions of particles in the framework of quantum field theory are understood as creation and annihilation of quanta of corresponding fundamental interactions. This blends particle physics with field theory. Even among particle physicists, the exact definition of a particle has diverse descriptions.
