This learning path introduces the theory of weak interactions, covering the necessary background in particle physics and symmetries, the properties of W and Z bosons, parity violation, weak decays, and culminating in the electroweak unification. It is designed for high school students with a basic understanding of physics who want to systematically learn about the weak force.
This learning path introduces the theory of strong interactions, starting from the basic constituents of matter and leading to the concepts of color charge, confinement, asymptotic freedom, and quantum chromodynamics (QCD). It is designed for high school students with an interest in nuclear and particle physics.
A structured learning path for high school students to understand the Standard Model, covering fundamental particles, forces, and the Higgs mechanism.
This learning path introduces the physics behind particle accelerators, from basic electromagnetism to the operation of linear accelerators, cyclotrons, synchrotrons, and colliders. It emphasizes the fundamental principles and practical applications, preparing students for further study in nuclear and particle physics.
A systematic learning path covering the principles and applications of radiation detection, from fundamental interactions to gas detectors, scintillators, semiconductor detectors, and spectroscopy. Designed for high school students with an intermediate level of physics.

A structured learning path covering the fundamental physics of nuclear fission, from atomic structure and nuclear forces to the mechanisms of fission, energy release, and the principles of nuclear reactors and chain reactions. Designed for high school students with a basic understanding of physics and chemistry.
This learning path guides high school physics students through the principles of radioactive decay, activity, decay chains, and applications such as secular equilibrium and radiometric dating. Starting from fundamental concepts of nuclear stability and decay modes, learners progress to quantitative analysis using decay constants and half-life, then apply these to multi-step decay chains and equilibrium conditions. The path concludes with practical applications in dating and real-world examples, ensuring a systematic understanding of nuclear kinetics.
This learning path introduces students to the major theoretical models of nuclear structure: the liquid drop model, the shell model, and the collective model. It covers the necessary background in nuclear physics and quantum mechanics, then explores each model's assumptions, successes, and limitations, culminating in an understanding of how these models complement each other.
This learning path introduces high school students to the basic concepts of particle physics, covering the fundamental constituents of matter (leptons, hadrons, and quarks) and the fundamental forces that govern their interactions. Starting from atomic structure, the path progresses through the standard model of particle physics, emphasizing the classification of particles and the role of forces.
