What is quantum physics? Put simply, it’s the physics that explains how everything works: the best description we have of the nature of the particles that make up matter and the forces with which they ...

Although particle physics seeks to describe the most fundamental aspects of the universe, the fundamentals of physics themselves are always subject to change in response to new information.

Today, the universe as we know it is governed by four fundamental forces: the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, electromagnetism, and gravity. However, these four forces aren’t ...

We explore how they aim to unite the four fundamental forces: gravity, electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force, and the weak nuclear force.

It encompasses three of the four fundamental forces of the universe – electromagnetism and the strong and weak nuclear forces.

According to the Standard Model of particle physics, there are four fundamental forces of nature – electromagnetism, the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force and gravity.

The 1970s were heady times for high-energy physics. A surprising new layer of matter was discovered during those years, and three of Nature’s four fundamental forces began to be viewed as one. When ...

Of the universe’s four fundamental forces – gravity, electromagnetism, and the strong and weak nuclear forces – gravity is the one we’re most familiar with in everyday life, but it’s ...

According to the current Standard Model, four fundamental forces underpin all known physics: electromagnetism, gravity, and the strong and weak nuclear forces. However, since the mid-1980s ...
