Particle Physics Playground
is a multiplayer virtual reality laboratory built to help students engage with core concepts from modern particle physics through direct interaction. The experience allows users to work with particles from the Standard Model, examine their properties, and explore how fundamental forces and interactions behave beyond what can be easily conveyed through textbooks or equations.
Students can organize particles into their respective families, visualize force carriers, and run guided experiments that demonstrate concepts such as quantum fluctuations, the Casimir effect, superconductivity, and large scale cosmic expansion influenced by dark matter. Each experiment is designed to let students change variables, observe outcomes in real time, and collaborate with others inside a shared virtual space.
The lab focuses on making abstract physics concepts tangible and intuitive, using spatial reasoning and experimentation to support understanding in ways that are difficult or impossible to achieve in a traditional classroom.
