Physics

Course summary

How can things be in two places at once? Is time travel possible? What are the most fundamental building blocks of the Universe? How do everyday machines work? The world is a bewilderingly complex place but, amazingly, it can be understood by using a small number of fundamental principles, to understand particles and the forces that govern their interactions. Physics is the study of these principles. We will study the quark model of matter, follow the most recent findings of the research at The European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN) and discover some of the secrets of the formation of the universe.
