Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Symmetry breaking in physics describes a phenomenon where (infinitesimally) small fluctuations acting on a system crossing a critical point decide a system''s fate, by determining which branch of a bifurcation is taken. For an outside observer unaware of the fluctuations (the "noise"), the choice will appear arbitrary. This process is called symmetry "breaking", because such transitions usually bring the system from a disorderly state into one of two more ordered,…mehr

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Symmetry breaking in physics describes a phenomenon where (infinitesimally) small fluctuations acting on a system crossing a critical point decide a system''s fate, by determining which branch of a bifurcation is taken. For an outside observer unaware of the fluctuations (the "noise"), the choice will appear arbitrary. This process is called symmetry "breaking", because such transitions usually bring the system from a disorderly state into one of two more ordered, less probable states. Since disorder is more symmetric in the sense that small variations to it don''t change its overall appearance, the symmetry gets "broken".
