high energy physics?

[edit]

Just wondering why this isn't high energy physics? I would think that is the WP:COMMONNAME, at least among physicists. One complication, I don't know if it should have the hyphen or not. Gah4 (talk) 18:58, 13 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Particle physics is not restricted to high energies. Where does this idea even come from? ♆ CUSH ♆ 13:45, 14 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
High energy physics is one of the common names - on the experimental side the energies are high. See https://www.energy.gov/science/hep/high-energy-physics and https://science.osti.gov/hep/Research/Science-Drivers-of-Particle-Physics from the US Office of High Energy Physics. Not hyphenated.

Future section?

[edit]

@Drbogdan Are plans and speculation notable aspects of particle physics? News about plans? Do we want to have research proposals from groups doing particle physics? Grant proposals? Etc. I say no, only verifiable information about particle physics here.

It seems reasonable to mention the P5 group but the details of the P5 group belong on Particle Physics Project Prioritization Panel. Johnjbarton (talk) 16:40, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Johnjbarton: (and others) - Thank You for your comments - yes - *entirely* agree - no problem whatsoever - whatever is finally decided is completely ok with me - Thanks again for your comments - and - Stay Safe and Healthy !! - Drbogdan (talk) 17:01, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks! I moved your paragraph into the P5 page where it nicely filled in a blank spot in the TOC! Johnjbarton (talk) 17:26, 8 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Subatomic particles section

[edit]

The first part of this section not only uses a different style of writing, but contains several factual inaccuracies - in particular in combination with the table. Consider removing the first two paragraphs, the table, or updating both the text and table to reflect information from other articles. 194.166.214.235 (talk) 11:47, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
