We conceived a model experiment for a continuous separation strategy of chiral molecules (enantiomers) without the need of any chiral selector structure or derivatization agents: Micro-particles that only differ by their chirality are shown…

Circular dichroism in the angular distribution (CDAD) is the effect that the angular intensity distribution of photoemitted electrons depends on the handedness of the incident circularly polarized light. A CDAD may arise from intrinsic…

The phenomenon of molecular optical activity manifests itself as the rotation of the plane of linear polarization when light passes through chiral media. Measurements of optical activity and its wavelength dependence, optical rotatory…

In the standard model of particle physics, the chiral anomaly can occur in relativistic plasmas and plays a role in the early Universe, protoneutron stars, heavy-ion collisions, and quantum materials. It gives rise to a magnetic instability…

Fundamental weak interactions have been shown to violate parity in both nuclear and atomic systems. However, observation of parity violation in a molecular system has proven an elusive target. Nuclear spin dependent contributions of the…

Spectroscopic techniques that are sensitive to molecular chirality are important analytical tools to quantitatively determine enantiomeric excess and purity of chiral molecular samples. Many chiroptical processes however produce weak…

The current discrepancy in $R_{D^{(*)}}=BR(\bar{B} \to D^{(*)}\tau\bar{\nu})/BR(\bar{B}\to D^{(*)} \ell \bar{\nu})$ where $\ell=e,\,\mu$ may imply a know particle with the mass around the order of TeV. Therefore it is well motivated to test…
