The particle zoo : the search for the fundamental nature of reality
Hesketh, Gavin2017
Book
What is everything really made of? If we split matter down into smaller and infinitesimally smaller pieces, where do we arrive? We are in the particle zoo - the extraordinary subatomic world of antimatter, neutrinos, strange-flavoured quarks and yetis, gravitons, ghosts and glueballs, mindboggling eleven-dimensional strings and the elusive Higgs boson itself.
