A Feynman diagram visualizes interactions between subatomic particles in quantum field theory. Different line styles represent different particle types: straight lines for fermions (electrons, quarks), wavy lines for photons, curly/looped lines for gluons, and dashed lines for scalar bosons (e.g., Higgs). Lines meet at vertices representing interaction points. Invented by Richard Feynman, these diagrams are both a computational tool and a cultural icon of modern physics.
