Where can someone find the entire standard model?

The Standard Model of Physics is a theoretical framework that describes the fundamental particles and forces that make up our universe. It is currently the most successful and widely accepted model in particle physics.
The Standard Model was developed through a combination of experimental observations, mathematical theories, and scientific collaborations. It has been refined and expanded upon over several decades by scientists from around the world.
The main components of the Standard Model include 12 fundamental particles (6 quarks and 6 leptons) and 4 fundamental forces (electromagnetic, weak, strong, and gravitational). These particles and forces interact with each other to create all the matter and energy in the universe.
The Higgs boson is a fundamental particle predicted by the Standard Model that gives other particles their mass. Its discovery in 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider confirmed the validity of the Standard Model and opened up new possibilities for understanding the universe.
While the Standard Model has been incredibly successful in explaining the behavior of particles and forces, it still has some limitations. It does not include a theory of gravity and does not account for dark matter and dark energy, which make up a majority of the universe's mass. Scientists continue to conduct experiments and research to expand upon the Standard Model and address these limitations.
