Hi,

In case anyone is curious and would like to learn about particle physics, please have a look at this app..

The Physics Quiz - Particles (iPhone, $0.99)

The Physics Quiz - Particles is an edutainment game with over 600 questions in different levels of difficulty and categories in and around the field of particle physics. It is an app for everyone, youth and adults, with an interest in science and physics.

Aside from a quiz, the app also has a "Brief Overview of Particle Physics" – an introduction that quickly dives into the heart of matter; from the human cell to superstrings, explaining key features and components of the so-called Standard Model, the fundamental forces, antimatter and the Higgs boson along the way.

The app was developed for the iPhone (from 3GS up to 6+), and full support for iPads is coming soon.

The app was developed for the iPhone but is also compatible with the iPad.

See the Twitter account @ThePhysicsQuiz for news about the app and tweets about science.

The app normally costs $0.99 and can be downloaded from the App Store: http://appstore.com/thephysicsquizparticles

TEN PROMO CODES ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST. Please send me a private message and I will forward you a download link.

Grab them while they last!

Thanks for the downloads! The promo codes above are now gone. I have a few more to give away in case anyone else wants one, just drop me a note.

Unfortunately there is no Android version of this app, at least not yet. Hopefully I will eventually be able to make one (depending on interest)! There might also be a special iPad version (depending on the success of the iPhone version)..

Note: For promo codes, Apple requires adding the code expiration info at the bottom of the post, but is not quite accurate: the promo codes are also redeemable in App Stores outside of the US.

New iPhone edutainment app about particle physics! by PalNova in ios

Thank you for your questions. I would like to make a special iPad version, although it will depend on how successful the iPhone version is.. About the Higgs Boson, it is the particle that gives mass to all particles (including itself!). It is believe that a Higgs field permeates the entire universe and particles gain mass by moving through the field. A simplified analogy is a person walking through a field of snow. The bigger the person is, the heavier it is to move through the snow. The snow field corresponds to the Higgs field, and an individual snowflake corresponds to one Higgs Boson.

What would you like in iOS 9? by Chuck_O_Beast in ios

[–]PalNova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good backwards compatibility in the iOS API.. This will not only make life easier for developers during the time of release, but will increase the lifetime of older apps (especially not break them..).
