Browsing: Standard Model
The Standard Model is a fundamental theory in physics that describes the basic building blocks of matter and the forces that govern their interactions. It explains how the universe works at the smallest scales, encompassing particles like quarks, electrons, and neutrinos, along with the forces of electromagnetism, the weak nuclear force, and the strong nuclear force. The Standard Model has been highly successful in predicting experimental results, including the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, which gave mass to elementary particles. However, it does not include gravity and has limitations in explaining dark matter and dark energy, leading physicists to search for theories beyond the Standard Model.
