Ancillary teaching: exercises - An introduction to the standard
model of particle physics - the strong and electroweak
interactions between the basic constituents of the world, quarks
and leptons, via the exchange of gluons, photons and W and Z
particles. Recent results on CP violation and neutrino mixing.
The search for the Higgs particle. Beyond the standard model -
Grand unified theories and supersymmetry. - The main aim of the
Elementary Particle Physics course is to teach the fundamentals
of the Standard Model of Particle Physics. - By the end of the
course, the successful student
