→About Conservation of Momentum
===About Conservation of Momentum===
: In a [[Fundamental Interactions|fundamental interaction]] between [[Subatomic Particle|subatomic particles]] '''momentum is conserved'''. This can be used to detect new [[Subatomic Particle|particles]] which cannot be seen in a cloud chamber. Any time a [[Fundamental InteractionInteractions|particle interaction]] appears to violate '''conservation of momentum''' it means that a new, unseen [[Subatomic Particle|particle]] has been created and carried away the [[momentum]].
