COURSE INTRODUCTION & OUTLINE:

Particle physics is the branch of physics that studies the fundamental particles of the universe and their interactions. It focuses on understanding the nature of mass, energy, and matter, as well as the forces that govern their behavior. This field encompasses the study of subatomic particles such as protons, neutrons, electrons, and quarks, and explores their combinations and interactions, which are described by quantum field theory. Particle physics aims to answer fundamental questions about the universe's structure and the forces that shape it.
