Abstract
The Standard Model (SM) of particle physics is a gauge field theory based on the gauge group \(SU(3)_C \otimes SU(2)_L \otimes U(1)_Y\) that describes the fundamental electromagnetic, weak and strong interactions.

Notes
- 1.
We take the first generation as an example and assume that the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix is diagonal.
- 2.
The other parts of the SM should be changed correspondingly.
