The standard model of particle physics is a theory concerning the electromagnetic, weak and strong nuclear interactions which mediate the dynamics of the known subatomic particles. Developed throughout the early and middle 20th century, the current formulation was finalized in the mid 1970s upon experimental confirmation of the existence of quarks. Since then, discoveries of the bottom quark (1977), the top quark (1995) and the tau neutrino (2000) have given credence to the standard model. Because of its success in explaining a wide variety of experimental results, the standard model is sometimes regarded as a theory of almost everything.

Still, the standard model falls short of being a complete theory of fundamental interactions because it does not incorporate the physics of general relativity, such as gravitation and dark energy. The theory does not contain any viable dark matter particle that possesses all of the required properties deduced from observational cosmology. It also does not correctly account for neutrino oscillations (and their non-zero masses). Although the standard model is theoretically self-consistent, it has several unnatural properties giving rise to puzzles like the strong CP problem and the hierarchy problem.

Nevertheless, the standard model is important to theoretical and experimental particle physicists alike. For theoreticians, the standard model is a paradigm example of a quantum field theory, which exhibits a wide range of physics including spontaneous symmetry breaking, anomalies, non-perturbative behavior, etc. It is used as a basis for building more exotic models which incorporate hypothetical particles, extra dimensions and elaborate symmetries (such as supersymmetry) in an attempt to explain experimental results at variance with the Standard Model such as the existence of dark matter and neutrino oscillations. In turn, the experimenters have incorporated the standard model into simulators to help search for new physics beyond the standard model from relatively uninteresting background.

Recently, the standard model has found applications in other fields besides particle physics such as astrophysics and cosmology, in addition to nuclear physics.

Yay! Religious shitstorm! God has no place in science, and religion is a weak man's crutch. The world's 4.5 billion years old, not six to ten thousand, evolution has an insurmountable amount of evidence supporting it, Noah's ark is completely unbelievable,abortion isn't murder, God doesn't do anything except steal credit from science and gay people deserve the same rights as everyone else.

[jeff jones]

Incorrect. The heart of the Big Bang Theory is an attempt to find what made the universe exist, and it's pretty much as scientific as you can get. And religion and science can't coexist, and saying it can, whether from a scientific or religious point of view, is being closed-minded to that "fact." Secondly, anytime anybody starts their point off with "Yay! Religious shitstorm!" taking them seriously may not be the best course of action. Just sayin'.

SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION IN MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS,GREECE 2005-2012

New Mathematics and New Physics ..!! The real value of my EXONIC THEORY is at least 300 trillion Euro..!!! The Standard Model of our nature IS DIFFERENT from the old "pseudostandard model of .."=the nothing of value...!!

All scientific results have other explanations than the today wrong ideas of Higg ,Hawking etc..!As the time goes on... I think that serious and important ideas can come only from Sunny Countries.. like GREECE !!

[CamiloSanchez1979]

Change a decimal number in the Standard Model and your universe will be annihilated.

[Ahmed Saad]

Your respectable opinion doesn't necessarily mean its true

[Constantinos Kyventidis]

Nature self does not obey the made in England WRONG IDEAS !!!Shame to Higg ,Hawking etc...!!The OPEN BOOK OF THE NATURE is the unique Stantard Model ... SCIENTIFIC REVOLUTION IN MATHEMATICS AND PHYSICS,GREECE 2005-2012 !!

New Mathematics and New Physics ..fro all people of the world ...inclusive the CERN pseudoscientists etc!!!Nature is ONLY SIMPLE and its behavior is common in every scale of observation ..from nano...until astronomical...!!!Wake up your minds...!!!!

[Math Pro]

Not really. I myself am a christian but I love science and I don't think it contradicts with the God I believe in .

[Math Pro]

I am a christian and I agree with everything you said but abortion. Babies may be undeveloped but you still take away their life.

[Phil Bennett Owen]

Wow good catch, my bad. I didn't notice till after I had rendered that scene that I had them backwards.

[tarek salhi]

Personnaly, I don't understand why I always found a sterile debate on who is right, science or religion. It's sterile because they didn't spoke the same language and do not treat the same subject. They lives in orthogonal spaces. Science will never give you the meaning of your life and religion is not a descriptive, quantitative and reproductible exprience! Anyway, about the standard model, it's the first piece of a great monument of the modern physics. An incomplete and uncertain piece in fact.

[mrpengywinz123]

Aaaaaaaaand the Higgs is real.

[Constantinos Kyventidis]

The STANDARD MODEL OF THE NATURE is different from the "Standard model of particles physics" because the last is historically generated from.. all together the errors/illusions of the last (pseudo)scientists....Nature is unified and is not"divided" in "sections of behaviors.."!! Open your minds.!Nature self has only three kinds of ATOMS(not subdivided!!) the ANO ,the KATO and the OUDETERO and none "particle"!!

The today`s physics and chemistry etc are complex-confusing but... NOT THE NATURE.!!
