Physics Beyond the Standard Model
Physics Beyond the Standard Model: Exploring New Frontiers The Standard Model (SM) s is one of the most successful theories in the history of physics, describing the fundamental particles and forces that constitute the universe. Developed throughout the 20th century, it explains how sub atomic particle like quarks, leptons, and gauge bosons interact through the electromagnetic, weak, and strong nuclear forces. Despite its success, there are several phenomena it cannot explain which leads to the search for "physics beyond the Standard Model" (BSM). of our understanding of the universe.

Wave-Particle Duality
Wave-particle duality is one of the fundamental concepts in quantum mechanics. Before proceeding ahead, it is important to mention that quantum mechanics is the branch of physics that unfold the underlying physics and mysteries attributed to it at subatomic level and then solve those mysteries through different theoretical frameworks. Wave-particle duality was generally a mysterious and particularly one of the most curious and thoughtful phenomena unfolded by Louis De Broglie in 1923. According to this principle, particles like electrons and photons can exhibit both wave-like and particle-like behavior, depending on how they are observed and measured.
