    "abstract": "A transformation mechanism is proposed for the \"W\" weak force IVB particle.\nThe W is a dense \"metric\" boson which catalyzes transformations by combining\nreactants with virtual particle-antiparticle pairs created from the virtual\nvacuum particle-antiparticle \"sea\". \"W\" and \"Z\" IVB mass functions to recreate\nthe original (\"Big Bang\") metric energy and density (the \"electroweak\" force\nunification era or symmetric energy state) in which elementary particles were\nfirst formed and transformed, thereby maintaining the invariance of charge and\nother conserved parameters of elementary particles in the contemporary\nuniverse. Common weak force decays of leptons, mesons, and baryons are\nillustrated. A single electromagnetic transformation is also considered. A\ntable of three IVB \"families\" and associated Higgs bosons is appended,\nillustrating the (hypothetical) higher-energy structure and cosmological role\nof the weak force.",
