N'ime ihe nlere anya nke physics, photon bụ otu n'ime ihe anọ gauge bosons na electroweak interaction; ndị ọzọ atọ na-egosi W +, W- na Z0 na-ahụ maka mmekọrịta na-adịghị ike. N'adịghị ka photon, ndị a gauge bosons nwere uka, n'ihi usoro nke na-agbaji ha SU ((2) gauge symmetry. Njikọ nke photon na W na Z gauge bosons na electroweak interaction bụ nke Sheldon Abdus Salam na Steven Weinberg rụzuru, nke ha nwetara Nobel Prize na 1979 Ndị na-ahụ maka physics na-aga n'ihu na-ejikọ proton gauge dị ka nnukwu nnwale; Otú ọ dị, ndị mmadụ atọ ahụbeghị ihe ndị a na-ahụ anya, dị ka ndị a na-ahụ anya, na-ezo aka na proton gauge.
