  2. Particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle

    Arc welders need to protect themselves from welding sparks, which are heated metal particles that fly off the welding surface.. 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.

    The Wikipedia will use its language if the SVG file supports that language. For example, the German Wikipedia will use German if the SVG file has German. To embed this file in a particular language use the lang parameter with the appropriate language code, e.g. [[File:Standard Model of Elementary Particles.svg|lang=en]] for the

  4. Ultrafine particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultrafine_particle

    Ultrafine particles (UFPs) are particulate matter of nanoscale size (less than 0.1 μm or 100 nm in diameter). [1] Regulations do not exist for this size class of ambient air pollution particles, which are far smaller than the regulated PM 10 and PM 2.5 particle classes and are believed to have several more aggressive health implications than those classes of larger particulates. [2]

  5. Elementary particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elementary_particle

    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.

  6. Particle Data Group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_Data_Group

    The Review of Particle Physics [2] (formerly Review of Particle Properties, Data on Particles and Resonant States, and Data on Elementary Particles and Resonant States) is a voluminous, 1,200+ page reference work which summarizes particle properties and reviews the current status of elementary particle physics, general relativity and big-bang cosmology.

  7. Subatomic particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subatomic_particle

    A composite particle proton is made of two up quarks and one down quark, which are elementary particles.. In physics, a subatomic particle is a particle smaller than an atom. [1]

  8. Alpha particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_particle

    Alpha particles, also called alpha rays or alpha radiation, consist of two protons and two neutrons bound together into a particle identical to a helium-4 nucleus. [5] They are generally produced in the process of alpha decay but may also be produced in different ways.

  9. Particle in a one-dimensional lattice - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_in_a_one...

    In quantum mechanics, the particle in a one-dimensional lattice is a problem that occurs in the model of a periodic crystal lattice.The potential is caused by ions in the periodic structure of the crystal creating an electromagnetic field so electrons are subject to a regular potential inside the lattice.
