Complete Standard Model & Quantum Mechanics Guide

AI Thread Summary
There is no single comprehensive book or resource that encompasses the entire standard model of physics, including both classical physics and quantum mechanics. The standard model primarily addresses particle physics and fundamental forces, excluding gravity, though grand unification theories attempt to include it. Several recommended resources provide good overviews, such as "The Universe is a Strange Place" and "Standard Model: An Introduction." These materials can help fill knowledge gaps in physics. For those seeking a holistic understanding, exploring multiple sources is essential.

Hey guys,

Just wondering if there is a single book / website / paper with the entire standard model in it to date. e.g one giant book with everything about classical physics (facts and equations) in it...

what about one about the entire of Quantum Mechanics to date?

I only ask because I am interested to know, also it would be great for patching up gaps in my knowledge :-p

Not sure if there is a single text that covers the entire gamut of physics. Conventionally, the standard model includes the realm of particle physics and the fundamental forces, except for gravity. There are, however, versions that do include gravity called grand unification theories [GUT's]. Here are some sources I think give a pretty good overview of what I think you might be looking for:

The Universe is a Strange Place

Standard Model: An Introduction
http://arxiv.org/abs/hep-ph/0001283

I think it's easist first to watch a short vidio clip I find these videos very relaxing to watch .. I got to thinking is this being done in the most efficient way? The sand has to be suspended in the water to move it to the outlet ... The faster the water , the more turbulance and the sand stays suspended, so it seems to me the rule of thumb is the hose be aimed towards the outlet at all times .. Many times the workers hit the sand directly which will greatly reduce the water...
