Symmetry
Summary

The alignment of symmetry and mathematics is beautiful in the universe, but humans and celestial objects like stars and planets are only created when the balance is broken. Despite our innate sense of symmetry, breaking it is where the magic happens.

Electromagnetism
Summary

The mathematics of Maxwell's theories surrounding electromagnetism can be manipulated to construct alternate scenarios for the behavior of force carriers. By supposing a force carrier that bounces off other carriers like an electron, scientists can better understand the mechanics of electron interaction.
