model that is something we might call today the rigid bodies and low-speed, low compared to the speed of light, which became for quantum physics an important reference because it was she who changed our vision of mass and matter, creating a physical micro-particles that revolutionized even the way of thinking and it is important to understand the ‘information’ outside man.
All we can tell, all the model we have today of the whole universe is connected to this physical and she is about to meet a single model: the micro-particles, including photons particles and electro-magnetic waves in a single model, called Standard Model of Physics, the discovery of the Higgs particles or Particle of God in recent experiment done in the particle accelerator at the borders of France to Swizerland it helps this model.
