[CHEMISTRY HAS A VERY BEAUTIFULLY ARRANGED PERIODIC TABLE, DOES THE PHYSICAL SIDE HAVE ANYTHING TO COMPARE WITH THAT PERIODIC TABLE?]


Surely it must be the Standard Model Equation written in Lagrangian form.
The Lagrangian is a beautiful way of representing an equation that determines the state of a changing system and explains the maximum possible energy the system can sustain.
The Standard Model of elementary particle physics is often visualized as a table, similar to the periodic table of chemical elements, and is used to describe particle properties, such as mass, charge and spin. The board is also organized to show how these tiny pieces of matter interact with the fundamental forces of nature.
But the Standard Model is more than elementary particles arranged in a neat, beautiful table. It was not born as a board. This theory of almost everything actually represents a set of several mathematical models that have proven to be permanent explanations of the laws of physics.
Technically, the Standard Model can be written in several different forms, but, despite appearances, the Lagrangian is one of the simplest and cleanest representations of the theory.

Paragraph 1

These three lines in the Standard Model are typical for gluons, strong force-carrying bosons. Gluons are of eight types, which interact with each other and have a so-called color product.

Paragraph 2

Almost half of this equation is devoted to explaining the interactions between bosons, especially the W and Z bosons.
Bosons are force carriers, and there are four types of bosons that interact with other particles by three fundamental forces. Photons carry the electromagnetic force, gluons carry the strong force, and the W and Z bosons carry the weak force. The most recently discovered boson, the Higgs boson, is a little different; Its interactions appear in the next paragraph of the equation.

Paragraph 3

This section of the equation describes how elementary matter particles interact with the weak force. According to this formula, matter particles consist of three generations, each with a different mass. The weak force helps heavy matter particles break down into lighter matter particles.
This section also includes elementary interactions with the Higgs field, from which some elementary particles derive their mass.
Amazingly, this part of the equation makes an assumption that contradicts the discoveries made by physicists in recent years. It incorrectly assumes that particles called neutrinos have no mass.

Paragraph 4

In quantum mechanics, a particle doesn't have a specific path or trajectory, which means that sometimes there are redundancies in this form of mathematical formulas. To clean up these clutter, theorists use virtual particles they call ghost particles.
This segment of the equation describes how matter particles interact with the evil Higgs particle, the virtual product produced by the Higgs field.

Paragraph 5

This last part of the equation includes many ghost particles. These particles are called the Faddeev-Popov ghost particles, and they cancel out the clutter that occurs in interactions through the weak force.
