Primes

• Gauge Invariance / Gauge Symmetry
  • The success of lattice QCD in predicting the spectrum of hadrons, the transition temperature of QCD matter, and the equation of state of the quark-gluon plasma demonstrates that gauge invariance is not merely formal — it is essential for controlling non-perturbative physics where the strong coupling α_s(Q²) is large.

    This sourceComprehensive treatment of gauge theories, the Standard Model, electroweak symmetry breaking, non-perturbative methods, and renormalization.

Domain-specific

• Accidental symmetry
  • The entry records a descriptive analytical identity; practical use requires the governing domain's evidence, standards, and safety obligations.

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's ISBN resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. Neither this nor any other of the 2 citations of this work carries a recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
