Mastery checklist
Know what success looks like.
- 01
State the physical model and the evidence or observation it explains.
- 02
Track energy, momentum, charge, and nucleon number through the process where applicable.
- 03
Interpret the relevant spectrum, decay, probability, or binding-energy representation.
Exam lens
Build, apply, check.
11 Particle physics sits inside AS Level foundations. Build the concept first, then practise selecting a model, showing working, and checking the final result.
