Rubbia has helped in advancing our understanding of which fundamental force?

  • Gravitational

  • Electromagnetic

  • Weak Nuclear

  • Strong Nuclear

Answer

The weak nuclear force, as revealed by Rubbia's contributions, is one of the four fundamental forces that govern the interactions between subatomic particles. Unlike the strong nuclear force that binds protons and neutrons within atomic nuclei, the weak force mediates radioactive decay and neutrino interactions, playing a crucial role in processes like stellar nucleosynthesis and the behavior of radioactive elements.
