And even light particles they can convert often bounce off them without ever hitting an electron.

即使它们可以转换的光粒子也经常从它们身上反弹，而非撞击到电子。

Solar panels work when light particles hit their surface with enough energy to knock electrons out of their stable bonds.

当光子撞击在电板表面的能量足够大时，太阳能电池板就会工作，将电子从其稳定的连接中敲出。

This is because they decay very quickly into the lighter particles.

这是因为它们会很快衰变成较轻的粒子。

All eyes, whether nocturnal or not, depend on photoreceptors in the retina to detect light particles, known as photons.

所有的眼睛， 无论是否在夜间，都依赖于视网膜中的光感受器来检测光粒子，即光子。

Topic one: Faster than light particles at CERN paradigm shifting discovery or another Swiss export as full of holes as their cheese? And converse.

第一个话题 欧洲核子研究中心宣布超光速离子的存在这是范式转换的新发现 还是像它们的乳酪一样千疮百孔的笑谈 开始高谈阔论吧。

The lhcb team has spent the best part of a decade measuring how subatomic particles known as b mesons decay into lighter particles.

lhcb 团队花了十年的大部分时间来测量称为 b 介子的亚原子粒子如何衰变成更轻的粒子。

The energy needed for plants to grow is contained in photons, or light particles, travelling at different wavelengths-distances between light waves which make things look different colours.

植物生长所需的能量包含于光子中——或者说光粒子，它们以特定的波长——光波之间的距离，使得事物看上去有不同颜色——运动。

By then all the stars will have burned out and the protons and neutrons in them will probably have decayed into light particles and radiation.

到那时所有的恒星都会燃烧殆尽，其中的质子和中子可能会衰变成轻粒子和辐射。

The energy needed for plants to grow is contained in photons – or light particles, travelling at different wavelengths – distances between light waves which make things look different colours.

植物生长所需要的能量包含在光子或光粒子中，它们以不同的波长传播——波长是指光波之间的距离，它使事物呈现出不同的颜色。

The FASER detector at the LHC, which began collecting data in 2022, is designed to detect extremely light dark-matter particles, such as dark photons, that might be produced in collisions at the LHC.

大型强子对撞机的FASER探测器于2022年开始收集数据，旨在探测可能在大型强子对撞机碰撞中产生的极轻暗物质粒子，例如暗光子。
