Is physics finished? - Deepstash

Is physics finished?

Nowadays, people worry about a “desert scenario,” where no new particles will be found for many decades to come, if ever.

This point of view is wrong.

The first two decades of this century have been pretty successful for physics:

  1. the discovery of the Higgs particle
  2. the detection of gravitational waves
  3. the first image of a black hole

95 Percent of the universe is missing. 

The aim of physics is to understand in a precise, mathematical way all manifestation of matter and energy in the universe.
