Christine Sutton is a physicist associated with the Particle Physics Group in the Physics Department of the University of Oxford. The University of Oxford (informally "Oxford University" or simply "Oxford" located in the city of Oxford, Oxfordshire, England is the

Sutton is active in outreach programs for particle physics and has previously represented Great Britain in the European Particle Physics Outreach Group. Particle physics is a branch of Physics that studies the elementary constituents of Matter and Radiation, and the interactions between them See also Kingdom of Great Britain Great Britain (Breatainn Mhòr Prydain Fawr Breten Veur Graet Breetain is the larger of the two main islands She is by far the most prolific contributor to the 2007 Encyclopædia Britannica, with 24 articles on particle physics:[1]

In Theoretical physics, supergravity ( supergravity theory) is a field theory that combines the principles of Supersymmetry and General relativity See also String theory Superstring theory is an attempt to explain all of the particles and Fundamental forces of nature in one theory by modelling In Particle physics, supersymmetry (often abbreviated SUSY) is a Symmetry that relates elementary particles of one spin to another particle that The tau lepton (often called the tau, tau particle, or occasionally the tauon; symbol) is a negatively charged Elementary particle with In Physics, a unified field theory is a type of Field theory that allows all of the Fundamental forces between Elementary particles to be written The weak interaction (often called the weak force or sometimes the weak nuclear force) is one of the four Fundamental interactions of nature The W and Z bosons are the Elementary particles that mediate the Weak force. John Gordon Melton (b September 19, 1942) is an American religious scholar who was the founding director of the Institute for the Study of American

She is also active in physics education and has developed several innovative programs for introducing quantum physics to schoolchildren.

Sutton is the author of three books, Spaceship Neutrino, The Particle Connection and The Particle Explosion (together with Frank Close and Michael Marten).
