What forums and boards are most popular among theoretical physicists ?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
You might consider reading sci.physics.research on the usenet. It's the only "board" in use by many physicists.

Most communication among physicists happens via journal articles or pre-prints. You might want to look at arxiv.org for those.

Thank you for the answer.

So, what are you doing here ? :)
In addition to your administrative work.

Ps: if you know where to look for the answer.

Thread 'Need help understanding particle physics and quantum physics'

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
