Pier Oddone, DOE SC Planning, April 29, 2009
Standard Model of Particle Physics
• Standard Model is a remarkable intellectual construction
• Every particle experiment ever done at the lab (except Neutrino experiments. Nobel Prize in 2002) fits in the framework
• But huge questions remain unanswered. New physics (e.g. Supersymmetric extension of SM, extra dimensions, …) is required to answer.
