A new history of how we got here, published in Physical Review Letters describes how our understanding of how the symmetries of the Standard Model behaved in the early universe may have to change.

Their paper with S. Rychkov and S. Zan in Journal of Physics A was honored for "novelty, achievement, potential impact and presentation", for describing a new example of the extraordinary idea of duality.

Duality is a principle of physics that has only been recognized in the past few decades, in which two theories that are superficially different lead to the same physical consequences.
