Summary
The Standard Model of particle physics describes the elementary particles and their interactions. Since the discovery of the Higgs boson it has been considered complete. However, some characteristics of Higgs boson itself raise new questions. This also goes for many other phenomena we are unable to explain by the means of the Standard Model. Collider experiments as the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are expected to deliver answers. For these projects to succeed, physicists need to rely on precisely calculated predictions.
