= Event (particle physics)
{wiki=Event_(particle_physics)}
In particle physics, an "event" refers to a specific occurrence of a particle interaction or collision that is detected and recorded in an experiment. Events are the fundamental units of data collected in high-energy physics experiments, such as those conducted at particle accelerators like the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). When protons or other particles collide at high energies, they can produce a variety of particles through various interactions, such as strong force interactions, weak force interactions, or electromagnetic processes.
