contributed to theories involving light. Of these‚ the wave-particle duality is arguably the most strange and noteworthy concept in the field. Throughout history‚ some physicists have argued that light behaves as a wave‚ such as Christiaan Huygens and others‚ such as Isaac Newton have proposed that light consists of particles (Wave-Particle Duality‚ March 2010). Today‚ as stated in the wave-particle duality‚ light is said to exhibit wave-like and particle-like properties. And still today‚ physicists are

What are particle accelerators used for? A particle accelerator is a device that uses electric fields to propel electrically charged particles in a vacuum‚ which approach the speed of light‚ towards each other and collide. The result hopefully being that the kinetic energy in the particles and other energy converted into subatomic particles or various types of nuclear radiation. There is more than one type of particle accelerator; they come in two basic types: • Linear • Circular Linear

"What is the God particle?" Answer: The "God particle" is the nickname of a subatomic particle called the Higgs boson. In layman’s terms‚ different subatomic particles are responsible for giving matter different properties. One of the most mysterious and important properties is mass. Some particles‚ like protons and neutrons‚ have mass. Others‚ like photons‚ do not. The Higgs boson‚ or “God particle‚” is believed to be the particle which gives mass to matter. The “God particle” nickname grew out

Magnetic particle inspection (MPI) - Is a non-destructive testing (NDT) process for detecting surface and slightly subsurface discontinuities in ferroelectric materials such as iron‚ nickel‚ cobalt‚ and some of their alloys. The process puts a magnetic field into the part. The piece can be magnetized by direct or indirect magnetization. Direct magnetization occurs when the electric current is passed through the test object and a magnetic field is formed in the material. Indirect magnetization occurs

Karla Alvarez Chemistry Period One Subatomic Particle The electron is extremely small compared to all the other parts of the atom. It is negatively charged. The negative charge balances out the positive charge of the protons in the atom. Electrons are found in the electron cloud that surrounds the nucleus of an atom. The clouds are generally organized into shells. Electrons move at a quick pace‚ so you never really know where they are specifically. But after years of doing experiments‚ scientists
