While the atom is universally acknowledged as the basis for most branches of
physics, the study of its constituent particles has illuminated significant
new areas of research. The behavior of subatomic particles provides crucial
information on the structure and nature of atomic nuclei, which in turn reveal
much about energy, matter, and often the origins of the universe. Complete with
color diagrams and photographs, this volume elucidates the intricacies of this
rapidly developing and always compelling field.
