Which model in particle physics was developed from Kendall's research?
Quark model
Standard model
String model
Higgs model
Answer
The quark model, developed from Richard E. Kendall's research on deep inelastic scattering, revolutionized particle physics. Kendall's experiments revealed that protons and neutrons are not fundamental particles but are composed of smaller particles called quarks. This discovery led to the development of the Standard Model of particle physics, which describes the fundamental particles and forces that govern the universe.
