The Standard Model of Particle Physics

Once you start learning about modern physics, you start to hear about weird particles like quarks and muons and neutrinos. What are all these things? Why are there so many? How do we know they exist? What do they do? Let's check out the standard model of particle physics.

Check out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!

no distraction, no stupid pictures, no, annoying background music. superb quality of contents, precise, no BS. perfect educational video

I understood a lot of this before watching this, but this has to be the best explanation as a whole I have seen so far. I have trouble with retention, so I will watch this a few times. This is very easy to understand, if not retain. Thank you!

Been watching physics videos for a while and this is the most comprehensive explanation of the standard model I've seen - clear and concise. Big thumb up!

[Rugbystu]

your videos are very well explained. you're not running through your content and you make it easy to understand. you deserve much more views and subscribers because of the high quality of your videos.

I've watched a lot of videos on the Standard Model. and this is one of the most concise and clearly explained that I've seen. Excellent job.

[tweedy]

I'm often watching videos on physics and thinking about nature of reality stuff, and found this very good. Thumbs up from me, you manage to hold the viewers attention and be concise.

thank u professor dave, sometimes in class this stuff goes right over my head but u have such a great pace of explanation and example so i understand it very well now. thank u so much king

Thank You for this brilliant video, which enable me to understand such huge concepts.
I have been trying to understand these by reading and surfing onto internet, but it found to be so so so so hard for me. So, Thanks for this video!!!

Would be interesting to see a video summarizing the experimental evidence (from the literature and scattering experiments) for each particle type. Great job Dave!

[elaineyeung]

Thank you so much for the great video. Helped me with my physics report a ton!

[ainbrisk]

thanks for all your educational videos, they have helped me tremendously!

[flyingllama]

Great content. Very educational & understandable for the lay person. The standard model is a corner stone of modern physics!

[masai]

all your videos are the best simple explanations ever!
I agree, you absolutely deserve for much more viewers.
people, wake up!
that guy is one of a kind!

Excellent, excellent, excellent. Your explanation was clear. my education in physics stopped in the sixties. Just another great video Prof

I still don't get why gravity requires some kind of particle if it's just a bending of space-time.

[fjavierordoneza]

I'm physics student and I'm trying to understand standard model for a course of my career called Introduction to subatomic physics. Your video was helpful to me. You explain better than my teacher Thanks

I’ve been going down the quantum field theory rabbit hole for a month now and I just love how simple and straight forward you make everything sound . Thank you science Jesus .

[Djmikibg]

I finally understood standard model of physics :) Great job!

[myzorro]

Wonderful really wonderful Dave your deserve an enormous thumb !!
