New Revolution in Particle Physics: Standard Model (Spring 2010)
Stanford Univ. - New Revolution in Particle Physics: Standard Model (Spring 2010). 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.
Lecture 1 | New Revolution in Particle Physics: Standard Model
Leonard Susskind, discusses the origin of covalent bonds, Coulomb's Law, and the names and properties of particles.
Lecture 2 | New Revolution in Particle Physics: Standard Model
Leonard Susskind discusses quantum chromodynamics, the theory of quarks, gluons, and hadrons.
