#HIGGS BOSON MASS MANUAL#
The model is a sort of instruction manual for the universe, with 12 elementary particles of matter, and the fundamental forces provide the methods for putting the matter together. The Standard Model is theoretical physicists’ best attempt yet to describe the elementary particles, and to explain how three of the four forces govern the way they behave. These forces act upon different types of particles and control how they interact with each other. There are also four fundamental forces, or fields, within the universe: the strong nuclear force, the weak nuclear force, the electromagnetic force and the gravitational force. These elementary particles combine to form composite particles. Of the 200 sub-atomic particles that we know about, there are some that cannot be split into smaller components, and these are called elementary particles. The Standard Model Explaining how the world works
In fact, there are more than 200 types of sub-atomic particles, which interact in very complex ways. We now know that the fundamental world extends far beyond the basics of earth, air, fire and water, and there are a lot of things smaller than a hydrogen atom. was the smallest component of matter, and could not be broken up into anything smaller (the name comes from the Greek word atomon, which means ‘that which cannot be divided’) and that a hydrogen atom was the smallest possible particle of matter. GLOSSARY atom The fundamental unit of all matter consisting of a nucleus of protons and neutrons surrounded by orbiting electrons (or in the case of hydrogen, just one electron). Modern day particle physics is concerned with how the world works on a sub-atomic (really really small) scale. Over the centuries, physicists have taken these concepts and run amok. The ancient Greeks thought it all boiled down to four elemental substances: earth, air, fire and water. People have always been curious about how the world works, and what everything is fundamentally made of.
