ZA_2_01 — Time: Physics and Philosophy

Time is arguably the deepest unsolved problem in physics and philosophy. Physics reveals: (1) time is relative, not absolute — Einstein showed it flows at different rates depending on velocity and gravity; (2) the fundam

ZA_1_04 — Electroweak Unification: The Weak Nuclear Force

The electroweak theory, developed by Glashow (1961), Weinberg (1967), and Salam (1968), unifies electromagnetism and the weak nuclear force into a single gauge framework — SU(2)L × U(1)Y. The weak force, responsible for
