Nuclear reactor is application of quantum physics.

 

Magnetic resonance imaging another application of quantum physics.

Yes, but I mean a hypothetical application of quantum physics given the latest research. Not something you can find on wikipedia.

 

2nd and 3rd generation leptons and quarks and mesons are short living particles, that need tremendous amount of energy to create them in particle accelerator.

There are still applications of 2nd and 3rd generation particles, such as Muon-Catalyzed fusion, which is impractical with the current technology, but it is still something that is possible.

I know that there have been many technologies sparked by discoveries in quantum mechanics, however I haven't seen much about the application of the discoveries behind the Higgs or the higher generation leptons and quarks. Right now these discoveries are for the "understanding of nature" as was Schrödinger's equations at the time, which lead to the laser which is now very prevelant in modern society. My question is, are there any hypothetical uses for this knowledge, not ones already floating around the scientific community such as quantum computing?
