Clearly, besides metaphysics, the developing of calculus had also provided some grounds for seeking universal elementary constituents.
"The teleportation scheme demonstrated here could be used as the elementary constituent of a quantum repeater," they wrote.
In physics, fractionalization is the phenomenon whereby the quasiparticles of a system cannot be constructed as combinations of its elementary constituents.
Fractionalization can be understood as deconfinement of quasiparticles that together are viewed as comprising the elementary constituents.
The patterns of the ripples would have depended on just how the elementary constituents of matter interacted inside that superhot ball.
Particle physics is the study of the elementary constituents of matter and energy, and the interactions between them.
Electron: An elementary constituent of an atom that orbits the nucleus and has a negative charge.
It derives from two Greek words: stoicheion meaning "elementary constituents" and metrein meaning "to measure."
The one good idea that emerged from all this was that 'elementary' constituents of matter should be characterized by having simple, reliable properties.
Composite particles which were the first particle discovered containing a particular elementary constituent, or whose discovery was critical to the understanding of particle physics.
