SO ENDS this beautiful story of Pasteur’s chirality experiments of 1848 extending to Yang’s Nobel Prize in 1957. But the story is much more intricate than this and a full documentation of the history of chiral investigations is to be found in the reference below. Humanity has always been aesthetically interested in symmetry, and when scientists can tinker with such objects, there is undoubted joy to be had. https://lnkd.in/dV8y8JCn View in LinkedIn

THE AUTHOR. “Chen Ning Yang, byname Frank Yang, (born September 22, 1922, Hofei, Anhwei, China), Chinese-born American theoretical physicist whose research with Tsung-Dao Lee showed that parity—the symmetry between physical phenomena occurring in right-handed and left-handed coordinate systems—is violated when certain elementary particles decay. Until this discovery it had been assumed by physicists that parity symmetry was as universal a law as the conservation of energy or electric charge. This and other studies in particle physics earned Yang and Lee the Nobel Prize for Physics for 1957.” https://lnkd.in/dYgJtnNW View in LinkedIn

STANDARD VIEW. “The now standard cosmological scenario is based on inflation, baryosynthesis, and includes dark matter/energy in its sufficiently successful description of the data of precision cosmology on the structure and evolution of the Universe.” https://www.mdpi.com/2218-1997/7/9/347/htm View in LinkedIn

MODEST MISTRESS. “If no one has yet conceived of such a pattern, it is not because physicists have not tried, but because nature has yet not revealed enough of herself.” https://lnkd.in/dstWYyq5 View in LinkedIn

ANTIMATTER ISLANDS. “Non-trivial baryosynthesis scenarios can lead to the existence of antimatter domains in a baryon-asymmetrical Universe. The consequences of antibaryon-baryon annihilation at the border of antimatter domains is investigated. Low-density antimatter domains are further classified according to the boundary interactions. A similar classification scheme is also proposed for higher-densities antimatter domains.” https://lnkd.in/dv8ywQ9U View in LinkedIn

ENORMOUS REWRITE OF SUCH A THEORY. “Judging from the beautiful logical perfection and the profound experimental consequences of the successes of symmetry considerations in physics, one is entitled to believe that such a pattern, when it emerges, would transmute the whole enterprise.” https://lnkd.in/dqXS2nnQ View in LinkedIn

ENGULFED VIRUS. “In 2001, Bell (2001) and Takemura (2001) independently proposed a new hypothesis asserting that the eukaryotic cell nucleus originated from complex DNA virus ancestors infecting ancestral eukaryotic cells.” https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fmicb.2020.571831/full?utm_source=researcher_app&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=RESR_MRKT_Researcher_inbound View in LinkedIn
