Lecture 6 | New Revolutions in Particle Physics: Standard Model

(February 15, 2010) Professor Leonard Susskind delivers the sixth lecture for the course New Revolutions in Particle Physics: The Standard Model.

This course is a continuation of the Fall quarter on particle physics. The material will focus on the Standard Model of particle physics, especially quantum chromodynamics (the theory of quarks) and the electroweak theory based on the existence of the Higgs boson. We will also explore the inadequacies of the Standard Model and why theorists are led to
go beyond it.

This course was originally presented in Stanford's Continuing Studies program.
