Particle concept is not new:Central forces, action at a distance (Newton)Kinetic theory of gases (Bernoulli, 1738)Boscovich: gasses composed of massive, point like particles with central forcesNo quantum mechanics but otherwise similar to the way we think of particle physicsForces turn out to be a consequence of the exchange of virtual quanta

Which particles are truly elementary?Do we understand why particles have their observed properties?What can we calculate?Are the calculations reliable?Can we compare them with experiment?Is there an underlying theory that explains everything?

Particles that don t interact are described by quantum mechanics and special relativityInteractions are described by
Empirical parameterizations Dynamical models

Particles interact by the exchange of virtual quantaOnly know of four forces:
ElectromagnetismWeak nuclear forceStrong nuclear forceGravity
Each is associated with a class of particleseg. Electromagnetism photon
Electroweak

If we know how a particle couples to a particular force carrier then we can calculate probabilities:
What is harder is doing the reverseMeasure probabilitiesDeduce the form of the Hamiltonian, H
That is essentially what Particle Physics is about.

What are the most fundamental types of matter?Are there only four forces?Is the model that describes them self-consistent?Why does nature look this way?Are there cosmological implications?We think we might get some answers in the next decade
