If we consider the sentences in ZFC:

EM that express that exist a model of ZFC.

SM that express that exist a standard transitive model of ZFC.

OM that express that exist a $\omega$-model of ZFC.

By Godel second incompleteness theorem we know that $\mathsf{ZFC}\nvdash \mathsf{EM}$

What is known about:

$\mathsf{ZFC+EM}\nvdash \mathsf{OM}$ ?

or

$\mathsf{ZFC+OM}\nvdash \mathsf{SM}$ ?

or

$\mathsf{ZFC+EM}\nvdash \mathsf{SM}$ ?

    For the second one: Caicedo's comment here shows that $\textsf{ZFC}+\textsf{SM}\vdash\text{Con}(\textsf{OM})$, so $\textsf{SM}$ is consistency-wise strictly stronger than $\textsf{OM}$. In particular, $\textsf{ZFC}+\textsf{OM}\not\vdash\textsf{SM}$. http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/33688/zfc-exists-standard-model-rightarrow-conzfc-exists-omega-model?rq=12017-02-02

All three statements hold, as mentioned in a couple of other answers on Math.SE. The second and third one follows from Caicedo's answer here, in which he shows that $\operatorname{ZFC}+\operatorname{SM}\vdash\text{Con}(\operatorname{OM})$. For the first one, as $\text{Con}(\operatorname{ZFC})$ is absolute between $\omega$-models as mentioned in Trevor's answer here, we get that $\operatorname{OM}$ is consistency-wise strictly stronger than $\operatorname{EM}$, yielding that $\operatorname{ZFC}+\operatorname{EM}\not\vdash\operatorname{OM}$.

We thus have a strict consistency-wise ordering $\operatorname{EM}<\operatorname{OM}<\operatorname{SM}$.
