the standard model of particle physics
The standard model of particle physics is a framework that describes the fundamental particles and forces that make up the universe. It specifies that matter is composed of quarks and leptons, and that forces are mediated by particles such as photons and gauge bosons. This model has successfully explained and predicted a wide range of particle interactions and is the foundation for our current understanding of elementary particles.
