How Effective is the Standard Model of Particle Physics? The Standard Model of particle remains consistent with (most) data, despite the best efforts of experiments, and the abundance of open problems including the identity of dark matter, the origin of the matter in the Universe and the nature of the mysterious Higgs boson, not to mention the unification of the Standard Model with gravity. The Standard Model should be regarded as an effective field theory that is a low-energy approximation to a more complete theory of fundamental physics. The latter may reveal itself through higher-order interactions between Standard Model particles that are being sought at the Large Hadron Collider and elsewhere. Any luck yet?
