:Title: Standard model of physics
:Tags: Styles;Decorations;Physics
:Author: Carsten Burgard
:Slug: model-physics
A standard diagram of the current standard model of physics.
In some ways, this was the ultimate, single-diagram user experience
challenge: all of our current understanding of the universe condensed
into a single infographic.
This improved diagram of the standard model of physics was made at
the CERN Webfest 2012 by David Galbraith and Carsten Burgard.
