Short description: Timeline of atomic and subatomic physics

A timeline of atomic and subatomic physics.

Antiquity

  • 6th - 2nd Century BCE Kanada (philosopher) proposes that anu is an indestructible particle of matter, an "atom"; anu is an abstraction and not observable.[1]
  • 430 BCE[2] Democritus speculates about fundamental indivisible particles—calls them "atoms"

The beginning of chemistry

The age of quantum mechanics

Quantum field theory

The formation and successes of the Standard Model
