The weak force exhibits asymmetry for parity transformations. “Measuring this asymmetry gives access to the weak force,” Bartlett said. “However, it’s very difficult to actually do in the laboratory — ...

These were the Majorana edge modes (MEMs). The two modes had distinctly different behaviors under so-called parity transformation. One mode looked identical under this transformation, so it was a ...

which means that its wavefunction does not change sign under a parity transformation (in which spatial coordinates are flipped). By contrast, a state of three pions has odd parity. If the same ...

In cosmology, it is generally expected that galaxy clustering on large scales is invariant under parity transformations. In three dimensions, a parity inversion is defined as a mirror image followed ...
