Descartes

Interestingly, once again, they can be read all the things of the Earth are unrealistic illusion is something forged by the work of the reality. Leaving behind the archaic thought and the world old, Descartes, father of modern, not to mention mathematical and scientific philosophy, left us his famous I think, therefore I am: apart from my own reasoning, and this to some extent, everything else is questionable. It worked using the premise of methodical doubt, i.e. the perception we can deceive. And stumbled and nudges we come to our time. Since the 20th century with nuclear physics we begin to know the matter more closely. It is that the part gets smaller on that matter could be divided until that moment, the atom consists of a nucleus of protons and neutrons, around which electrons circulate. It is estimated that the nucleus, where it is virtually all matter, is about 100,000 times smaller than the same atom.

I.e. that the core is wrapped by the electrons in the midst of a universe of vacuum. Matter, that can be touched, the real thing, if we look at it enough fence, is 99 percent empty, nothing. When entered into particles subatomic, quarks, photons, neutrinos, bosons and rare things like that, the matter becomes more ugly. Appears what are called quasiparticulas. These can only be studied in cosmic rays and particle accelerators. But up to the moment only is have been able to experience some of its effects, but not quantify its existence.

We know that they are there, and not much more. The more we get closer, the less we see. And with quantum physics is the use, we are left with stupid face. Reaches the end of postulating that there is no fundamental differences between (transmission of energy that vibrates at a certain frequency) waves and particles (fundamental components of matter): particles can behave as waves and vice versa.
