Following the first one which introduces our subject, the modules 2 (nuclear physics)<br \/>\nand 3 (accelerators and detectors) are rather self contained and can be studied separately. The modules 4 to 6 go into more depth about matter and forces as described by the standard model of particle physics. Module 7 deals with our ways to search for new phenomena. And the last module introduces you to two mysterious components of the Universe, namely Dark Matter and Dark Energy.<\/p>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Price: Enroll For Free!<\/h2>\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-button aligncenter\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-text-color has-very-light-gray-color has-background has-vivid-red-background-color\" href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/particle-physics\">View Class<\/a><\/div>\n<div style=\"height:55px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Language:<\/strong> <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"wp-block-column\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em><strong>Subtitles<\/strong>: <\/em>English<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"background-color:#496d89\" class=\"has-text-color has-background has-text-align-center has-very-light-gray-color\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.coursera.org\/learn\/particle-physics\">Particle Physics: an Introduction<strong> &#8211; University of Geneva<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Description This course introduces you to subatomic physics, i.e. the physics of nuclei and particles.
