Abstract
The Standard Model of strong and electroweak interactions (SM) was extensively outlined and discussed by many, for example in Altarelli’s TASI lectures [3] where the reader can find an in-depth discussion and references. The SM has provided the cornerstone of elementary particle physics for nearly three decades, particularly so after it was soundly established in recent years by the various high-energy collider experiments. Even though the reader’s familiarity with the SM is assumed throughout these notes, let us recall some of its main ingredients, particularly those that force one to look for its extensions.
