YES! You would think that theoretical physics doesn't affect your life, but every aspect of electronics is quantum physics. Computers work by very advanced physics. Energy sources depend on an understanding of what happens in the subatomic realm. Understanding how the Sun generates energy (fusion) will power our world sooner than you think. It's all around us.

Well, for starters,the World Wide Web and touch screens, which were initially developed at CERN.

Cyclotrons produce medical isotopes for treatment of cancer.

Superconductor development largely comes from its application in particle physics.

The smallest particle in physics?

That depends. The smallest particle in the classic physics is te atom. In the modern physics is the quark (quark is the composition of an eletron). WHAT IS THE SMALLEST PARTICLE The quark


What type of physics is the higgs boson involved with?

Particle physics. Specifically, the Standard Model of Particle Physics was centered around the Higgs Boson- had the boson not been found to exist, then modern physics as we know it would be on very shaky ground.


What is the main difference between particle physics and quantum physics?

There is none. To study particle physics you use the whole machinery of quantum physics, but written down in a different way. That means particle physicists use the formalism of quantum field theory, which is a more powerful way of doing quantum mechanics, it's just more useful in this context.


What is an application of elementary particles research?

... Well, for once a CRT TV tube is a direct result of elementary particle physics research. I would not mention the 'side effects' such as creation of the Internet. Myriad of medical and security applications are in existence by now. Particle physics is (arguably) the most fundamental branch of natural science thus it impacts many aspects of our lives albeit seemingly indirectly.


Can classical physics explain the photoelectric effect?

No. To explain the photoelectric effect, you have to think of light as a particle, not a wave. The fact that light can be both a wave and a particle is part of quantum mechanics, not classical physics.
