  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.

  3. 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.

  4. Proton - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton

    A proton is a stable subatomic particle, symbol p, H +, or 1 H + with a positive electric charge of +1 e (elementary charge).Its mass is slightly less than the mass of a neutron and approximately 1836 times the mass of an electron (the proton-to-electron mass ratio).

  5. 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]

  6. Standard Model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Model

    The Standard Model of particle physics is the theory describing three of the four known fundamental forces (electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions – excluding gravity) in the universe and classifying all known elementary particles.

  7. CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRC_Handbook_of_Chemistry...

    The CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics is a comprehensive one-volume reference resource for science research. First published in 1914, it is currently (as of 2024) in its 105th edition, published in 2024.

  8. 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.

  9. Charged particle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charged_particle

    In physics, a charged particle is a particle with an electric charge.For example, some elementary particles, like the electron or quarks are charged. [1] Some composite particles like protons are charged particles.
