The Principle of the Experiment. 12 Key Discoveries in Particle Physics

The Principle of the Experiment. 12 Key Discoveries in Particle Physics

Before you is the history of experiments and discoveries in particle physics, the physics of the 20th century. You will learn about the journey taken by the curious and critically-minded minds of scientists from the discovery of particles, waves, and... rays to the creation and use of the most complex modern instruments and technologies.
The author tells us how through dozens of versions and hundreds of experiments, we reached the grand scientific results of Niels Bohr, Pierre and Marie Curie, Robert Wilson and Peter Higgs, Einstein and Rutherford, how the structure of the atom and quantum of light were studied, how the cathode ray tube and particle accelerators were created, how the Large Hadron Collider was built, and how devices are designed that will lead science to new discoveries. All of this undeniably testifies to the fact that it is scientific research and experiments that make our world what it is.
