A general perspective about high energy physics

Abstract

This volume of Compte-Rendus proposes a discussion of an ensemble of precision measurements in particle physics. It provides an experimental state of the art review as well as perspectives for future measurements. We explore in this rapid overview the pillars of our knowledge, how they were established and draw some perspectives about the necessity of a new precision era to tackle the outstanding questions of the field.
