The timeline of particle physics lists the sequence of particle physics theories and discoveries in chronological order. The most modern developments follow the scientific development of the discipline of particle physics.
100 incredible years of physics – particle physics. The discovery of the Higgs boson at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012 was the latest triumph in the history of particle physics. The Higgs boson – named after one of physicists who predicted its existence in the 1960s, IOP Honorary Fellow Peter Higgs – was the last missing ...
Timeline of particle discoveries. This is a timeline of subatomic particle discoveries, including all particles thus far discovered which appear to be elementary (that is, indivisible) given the best available evidence. It also includes the discovery of composite particles and antiparticles that were of particular historical importance.

For over two thousand years people have thought about the fundamental particles from which all matter is made, starting with the gradual development of atomic theory, followed by a deeper understanding of the quantized atom, leading to the recent theory of the Standard Model.
