3. The klein-Gordon equation and the Dirac equation.
4. Spin 0 and spin ½ QED.
5. Weak interaction phenomenolgy.
6. Yang-Mills non-abelian gauge theory.
7 .The electro-weak gauge theory of the standard model.
8. The Higgs mechanism and the introduction of Mass
9. The generation of quark and neutrino(?) mass.
