It suggests that the fundamental particles we observe are not actually particles at all, but tiny strings that only "look" like particles to scientific instruments because they are so small.

它认为我们所观察的基本粒子其实根本不是粒子（paticles），而是细小的弦（tiny strings），因为它们太小所以用科学仪器“看起来”像粒子。

In our universe, the double-slit experiment shows that light looks like a wave when no one is observing closely - but starts looking like particles when we take a closer look!

在我们的宇宙中，光的双缝干涉实验充分证明了：当没有人仔细观察光的时候，光呈现出波动性；而我们仔细观察光线是如何同时穿过这两道缝隙的时候，光却又呈现出粒子性！

Soliton, like particles, can travel over long-distances without attenuation and changes of wave shapes, which is the result from the balance of the interplay between dispersion and nonlinearity.

孤立子能够既不发生衰减也不会改变波形地传播到较远的地方且具有类似粒子的特性，这主要是色散效应和非线性效应相互平衡的结果。

Physicists use super-powerful magnets to speed particles and control radiation like X-rays.

The 312 particles are held together in a nucleus by a force that involves the continuous exchange of meson-like particles called memo-ons.

12个粒子汇合与一个原子核里,连续不断的,叫做memo-ons的介子的交换给它作用力。

That might seem confusing if you're thinking about particles, but remember we're talking about the wave-like nature of electrons.

如果你们把它想成是一个粒子的话是很矛盾的，但记住我们这里说的,是电子的波动性。

Novavax's vaccines utilize what are called virus-like particles--genetically engineered molecules designed to train the immune system to recognize a particular virus.

The danger from nuclear waste comes mainly from dust-like particles containing radioactive isotopes of iodine, cesium and strontium that could be released if the reactor fuel is allowed to become too hot.

Investors putting in buy and sell calls should then act a bit like particles in a glass of milk, which remain suspended because they are constantly bustling into one another in a process known as Brownian motion.
