We are on our way to having physics declared beyond the Standard Model with new matter/force needed. And, this is quite specific as to what Geometric Unity says comes next: https://geometricunity.org

Will try to go over to UCLA to hear what my colleague Laurent Lellouch of the BMW group has to say today at #schwingerfest. He is not hopeful there is ANY easy BSM physics to be found. https://t.co/ISm6VKJOGm

Three weeks ago, I heard Nobel Laureate David Gross single out the Higgs field/particle/sector/mechanism  as “unnatural”, but what does that mean? Why single the Higgs out?

|content=So why is the Higgs still under suspicion well after it has been found? It’s hard to say exactly. In some sense, you can see the rest of the field theory of the Standard Model as being differential geometric in origin with our best comparison of the Higgs sector being Yang-Mills.

|content=Alternate thought experiment. 20 years from now there has been no progress beyond the standard model of particle physics. @FrankWilczek is the last living particle theorist to have made traditional contact with the physical world. What is a leading particle theorist in 2044, when no one has made progress in 70 years? Will we even know if anyone is really doing physics at that point when there are no traditionally successful theorists left but one?
