"Gauge Theory of Weak Interactions"

The Gauge Theory of Weak Interactions is a scientific framework explaining how certain fundamental particles, like electrons and neutrinos, interact through the weak force. It describes these interactions as exchange of force-carrying particles called W and Z bosons, arising from a symmetrical mathematical structure known as gauge symmetry. This theory successfully explains phenomena like radioactive decay and neutrino behavior, fitting into the broader Standard Model of particle physics. In essence, it provides a detailed, mathematically consistent way to understand how particles communicate via the weak force, which is essential for processes in nuclear reactions and the evolution of the universe.
