Nambu's findings impact the study of what kind of interactions?

  • Chemical

  • Biological

  • Electroweak

  • Sociological

Answer

Electroweak interactions are the combined electromagnetic and weak interactions that operate at the subatomic level. Nambu's findings, which earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 2008, were crucial in understanding the electroweak interactions. He proposed the concept of spontaneous symmetry breaking, which explains how the electroweak force can be unified at high energies but appears as two separate forces at lower energies.
