  Título: A history of some recent attempts to go beyond the standard model

  Resumo: Weak interactions and neutrinos are at the roots of the standard model of elementary particles (SM). Immediately after its formulation, the theorists have immediately tried to identify its shortcomings, aiming at making it even more complete. A breakthrough did not come from the process pointed out by most theorists, proton decay, but rather from neutrino physics. In fact, it was a phenomenon discussed before the foundation of MS, neutrino oscillations, the one that took us beyond the frontiers of SM. A very interesting open question in particle physics concerns exactly the nature of neutrino masses, which goes to the very foundation of SM. Standard cosmology also highlights further limitations of SM and provides us with important information about neutrino masses, but in a manner that is entangled with our understanding of gravity. Some promising directions of development, concerning the long-term perspective of the discussion, are finally mentioned.
