<Abdus Salam> developed the gauge-theory unification of the <weak interaction> and <electromagnetic interaction>. The common electroweak framework relates charged and neutral currents, while <spontaneous symmetry breaking> accounts for massive weak carriers and a massless <photon>. His authored lecture traces how symmetry principles become quantitative relations among apparently different interactions. This is unification through one underlying structure, rather than a claim that weak and electromagnetic processes have identical observed strengths.<Gauge Unification of Fundamental Forces by Abdus Salam>[1979 authored lecture, electroweak gauge unification, symmetry breaking and experimental tests]{ref}
