Time-Reversal-Invariance non-conservation has for the first time been unequivocally demonstrated in a direct measurement, one of the results of the CPLEAR experiment. What is the situation then with regard to time-reversal-invariance…
The Standard Model violates parity, but only by mechanisms which are invisible to Large Hadron Collider (LHC) experiments (on account of the lack of initial state polarisation or spin-sensitivity in the detectors). Nonetheless, new physical…
Parity violation experiments involving only two nucleons provide a way to study the non-leptonic, strangeness conserving part of the weak interaction in a clean measurement free of nuclear structure uncertainties. Although simple in…
