Overview An Exceptionally Simple Theory of Everything
electrons , quarks, electric (q) , color (g) charges, make color-neutral protons (with total electric charge q=+1) , neutrons (with electric charge q=0), make atoms. the pattern of weak isospin, t3, , weak hypercharge, yw, , color charge of known elementary particles, rotated weak mixing angle show electric charge, q, along vertical. neutral higgs field (gray square) breaks electroweak symmetry , interacts other particles give them mass. the pattern of weak isospin, w, weaker isospin, w , strong g3 , g8, , baryon minus lepton, b, charges particles in so(10) model, rotated show embedding of georgi-glashow model , standard model, electric charge along vertical. in addition standard model particles, theory includes thirty colored x bosons, responsible proton decay, , 3 w , z bosons. the pattern of weak isospin, w, weaker isospin, w , strong g3 , g8, , baryon minus lepton, b, charges particles in so(10) grand unified theory, rotated show embedding in e6. the goal of e8 theory describe el...
