"How We Built the Standard Model, Part 1" Prof David G. Hitlin

The Standard Model of elementary particle physics, constructed over more than a century, stands as a unique achievement in our understanding of Nature that can be summarized on a t-shirt. These lectures will elucidate the interplay between experimental discoveries and theoretical insights that led to this compact and elegant formulation.
