Particle Physics 2: Standard Model

Instructor: Professor Leonard Susskind. In this series Professor Susskind continues his particle physics theme, focusing on the foundations of the Standard Model, which describes the interactions and properties of the observed particles. These lectures cover the basics of group theory, symmetry, symmetry breaking, which are the natural way to describe the known particles. Several lectures are devoted to the way that particles get their mass, popularly known as the Higgs mechanism. (from theoreticalminimum.com)
