Particle Physics
The field of particle physics studies the properties and interactions of subatomic particles, such as muons, protons, pions and quarks. Use Wolfram|Alpha to examine the wide variety of particles described by the standard model of elementary particles. Learn how they interact and decay. Get information on particle accelerators, where these particles are created, manipulated and studied.
Get experimentally measured values, such as mass, charge, spin, parity and other fundamental quantum numbers, for particles.
