The Fall of Parity.
Forman, Paul
Physics Teacher, v20 n5 p281-88 May 1982
Physicists had assumed that the world is distinguishable from its mirror image and constructed theories to ensure that the corresponding mathematical property (parity) is conserved in all subatomic processes. However, a scientific experiment demonstrated an intrinsic handedness to at least one physical process. The experiment, equipment, and results are described. (Author/JN)
