Chien-Shiung Wu’s trailblazing but largely forgotten achievement features in a recent profile of the influential physicist.

In physics, producing the mirror image of something is known as parity. And in 1927, a hypothetical law known as the conservation of parity was formulated. It stated that no matter the experiment ...

Low-energy electroweak observables are sensitive to new physics which does not sit on the Z 0-resonance. The Qweak experiment uses parity-violating electron scattering from the proton at very low ...
