 **WARNING: The makers of this wiki would like to caution users that the content of this particular page is not included in the syllabus and may have detrimental effects on your ability to understand the topic. Proceed at your own risk. **  **Random Fact 1: Energy** //**can** //  **be converted into mass (and the other way around)** On more than one occasion, scientists working large experiment machines called particle accelerators have created pure energy out of mass and mass out of pure energy. This is done by smashing tiny sub-atomic particles together at speeds close to that of light. In modern theoretical physics, particle accelerators are ofter the one way to prove the existence of certain hypothetical particles and they often lead to interesting new discoveries about the way our universe works on the tiniest scale.

There is a hypothetical particle, called the graviton, which is believed to be the force-carrying ** particle for gravity, much like the photon is for light. What makes this particle so special is that, under conditions of extremely high energy, gravitons can literally pop in and out of existence. Scientists theorise that gravitons are so simple in terms of their properties and form that they can exist and move freely between dimensions. These scientists are now closely observing particle physics experiments in accelerators for that tiny drop in energy output that may prove the existence of the graviton.
 * Random Fact 2: The principle of conservation of energy** **//doesn't//** **apply to everything.

The 4 forces are, in order of increasing strength: **
 * Random Fact 3: (WIth no offence meant to the current syllabus) All the energies we have learnt about here are mere figments of our imagination. There are only 4 forces.
 * Force || Carrier Particle || In layman's terms ||
 * Gravity || Graviton || Gravity ||
 * Weak Force || The W+, W- and Z bosons || Nukes ||
 * Electromagnetism || Photon || Light, Electricity and Magnets ||
 * Strong Force || Gluon || Atommic Nuclei ||

I'd go on, but it would probably take up like 3 pages so if you //really// want to know more, you can start here: []
