About me

I began as an auto mechanic in the late 70s and moved into electronics and computer work. I have experience in paper tape reader repair, well before floppy disc and CD storage development.

I received an ASET degree and continued my studies to include construction technology. I spent many years working in the construction industry, primarily as an electrician. I always enjoyed writing and research but only began publishing my work in 2007. I have found that I love to research, learn and then write about a wide variety of subject areas.

I maintain my own websites for a sales hobby and taught myself HTML and CSS. I have also been a highly rated seller on a major sales site for several years. I have studied tax preparation and many aspects of sales and business purely for my own amusement.

Sciences > Physics Quarks, leptons, and force carriers: The standard model of physics: 1 of 1

The standard model of physics is a theory that is designed to explain the structure of the universe and how it is held together. This theory is a way of describing the interactions of all known particles. All known matter is composed of neutrons and protons, which are composed by quarks and leptons. These particles interact with each other through force carrier particles. The standard model theory breaks everything down into six quarks, six leptons and force carriers. Quarks are a building block. The six quarks include up, down, top, bottom, charm and strange. Up, charm and top quarks have...
