Industry:Physics
photons of high energy. The most energetic forms of light are known as gamma rays.
Industry:Physics
According to Einstein's theory of general relativity, the presence of matter can warp space-time. This warping of space can affect the path which light-rays follow, much in the same way that a lens does. This is known as gravitational lensing.
Industry:Physics
The generic term describing the hypothetical superpartner of any of the gauge bosons of the Standard Model.
Industry:Physics
Any particle made out of quarks and/or anti-quarks. Protons, neutrons, and anti-protons are examples of hadrons.
