A video tour of the Standard Model (2021)
The Standard Model is a sweeping equation that has correctly predicted the results of virtually every experiment ever conducted, as Quanta explores in a new video.
Save Article Recently, Quanta has explored the collaboration between physics and mathematics on one of the most important ideas in science: quantum field theory. As the Cambridge physicist David Tong puts it in the accompanying video, it’s “the most successful scientific theory of all time” despite being saddled with a “rubbish name.” The process of bringing QFT into math may take some time — maybe even centuries, as the physicist Nathan Seiberg speculated in the third piece in our series — but it’s also already well underway.
