Grand Unification
Grand Unification is a theoretical framework in physics that aims to unify the three fundamental forces of the Standard Model: the electromagnetic force, the weak nuclear force, and the strong nuclear force. These forces govern the interactions of particles at the subatomic level. The idea is that at extremely high energies, these forces merge into a single force, simplifying our understanding of the universe.
This concept is part of a broader quest for a theory of everything, which seeks to integrate gravity with the other fundamental forces. While no experimental evidence has yet confirmed Grand Unification, it remains a significant area of research in theoretical physics.
