Our understanding of subatomic particles has developed over many years and a clear picture of the different particles, their interactions and their interrelationships only emerged in the latter part of the 20th century. The development of the Standard Model provided clarification of the way in which various particles, specifically the hadrons, relate to one another and the way in which their properties are determined by their structure. Only recently has the final piece of, perhaps, the final model been clarified with the observation of the Higgs boson.

The description of particle structure on the basis of the Standard Model, along with recent discoveries concerning neutrino properties, provides us with a comprehensive picture of the properties of subatomic particles. Part I of this book provides an overview of the Standard Model of particle physics including an overview of the discovery and properties of the Higgs boson. Part II summarizes the important investigations into the physics of neutrinos and provides an overview of the interpretation of these studies.
