This reasonably informed layperson seeks clarification from the qualified in the area.
What is the correct current understanding of "what" is there at the sub atomic quantum level?
I am aware of the apparent dual nature of light and the associated early experiments of quantum discovery. I have read all matter ultimately has this nature at that level.
I had the concept of "forces", but I read from some on this forum that this is not correct. The knowledge of quantum discoveries underlie much new applied science, so "something" is being "used" in some manner.
Is it ultimately unable to be measured (and not through inability of current technology), or isolated, and thus "empty" of definition?
