More Confirmation of The Standard Model..it's a QM universe, baby!

Quantum mechanics is truly weird.However, nearly all of the predictions of The Standard Model have proven accurate to our ability to measure the phenomena. The things that physicists haven't yet found are still yet to be discovered.

It appears that at least one of The Model's "heavy" baronsmay have experimental support.

For what it is worth, the Physics Hypertextbook referenced in link #1 is a very, very cool reference. If you take that fine work, and use Stephen Wolfram's fabulous Wolfram Alpha for solution assistance, the world will turn. I find it odd that wolfram Alpha is a pay for app...it is however, more than worth the 3 bucks if you really need it even once. I am really frugal, and I bought the app. It makes lots of things too easy. I'd opt for Alpha Pro if I didn't have Mathematica at the ready. Mathematica knows everything :)

Oh, yes. This is a good day for particle physics!
