A Long View of Particle Physics
Published 2012-04-20, updated 2012-06-29Version 2
2011 marked the hundredth anniversary both of the famous Solvay conferences, and of the Geiger-Marsden experiment that launched the modern understanding of subatomic structure. I was asked to survey the status and prospects of particle physics for the anniversary Solvay conference, with appropriate perspective. This is my attempt.
Comments: 8 pages, no figures. Rapporteur talk at the 25$^{th}$ Solvay Conference on Physics, "Theory of the Quantum World", October 2011. To be published in the Proceedings. v2: Two trivial typos corrected
Keywords: particle physics, long view, anniversary solvay conference, geiger-marsden experiment, famous solvay conferences
