Gauge theories use the mathematics of symmetries to explore how subatomic particles behave. The theories have been used to predict the existence of elementary particles, including the Higgs boson, well before they’ve been observed and to unfurl details about the first few seconds of the universe’s existence. To this day, researchers in cosmology and particle physics benefit from Benjamin Whisoh Lee’s contributions to the development and dissemination of gauge theories.
