Has charge (magnitude) [edit] lost some of its value since the time of the big bang? If so, what's the theory behind this?

Its value seems to be a key part of some physical constants including the electric and magnetic constants. It must be in nature somewhere, right?
Vanadium 50 said:No. It's no more and no less natural than a Coulomb.
Charge (magnitude) is a fundamental property of matter that determines how it interacts with electric and magnetic fields.
There is currently no evidence to suggest that charge (magnitude) has changed since the Big Bang. In fact, charge (magnitude) is considered to be a conserved quantity in the universe.
The laws of physics, specifically the conservation of charge, provide strong evidence for charge (magnitude) remaining constant since the Big Bang. Additionally, experiments that study the behavior of charged particles in different environments have not shown any changes in charge (magnitude).
While there is no evidence for charge (magnitude) changing in the past, it is still an open question whether it could change in the future. Some theories, such as Grand Unified Theories, suggest that charge (magnitude) could change in extreme conditions, but this has not been observed or confirmed.
Charge (magnitude) is a fundamental property that plays a crucial role in many physical phenomena, including the behavior of atoms, electricity, and magnetism. It also determines how particles interact with each other and governs the structure of matter in the universe.
