Perhaps most importantly, it has enabled the development of quantum field theory (QFT ... and relativistic physics, and ...

Supersymmetry, a theory that posits every known elementary particle has a heavier “superpartner” particle, has been the superstar of theoretical physics for the past half century. Its ...

The goal of the ForVVard project is to analyze the all-hadronic final state of Vector Boson Scattering (VBS), a powerful probe into the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking and highly sensitive ...

This is similar to how a ... classical physics allowed them to derive the properties of dark energy not just from experimental data, but directly from a fundamental physical theory.
