Day 3: The Saga continues

I’ve always had a fascination with Quantum mechanics ever since I was a little kid and I always wanted to know what makes up us. It’s such a simple question but I’ve come to find out the answer is far more complex.

Yea…I’m a nerd lol.

I’ve been reading this book on and off for the last 6 months…I take my time when I’m reading lol. It’s really dense and takes multiple reads to understand but it’s worth it. Reading this book has opened my eyes to the world of quantum physics and started me on a path to ask myself, “What am I made of ?”. After doing a few google and wiki searches I found The Standard Model.

Confused???…So was I.

I looked at this table and thought to myself, “I don’t get it.” But, I had so many questions after staring at it: What do the different colors represent, what are those three numbers in the upper left hand corner, what are fermions and bosons. That’s when it hit me, this information can be easier to digest if it was in an app for inquisitive people and be used as a quick reference for students and professions in the field of quantum mechanics.

Now that I have the idea it’s time to see what apps are already out there, if any….to be continued.
