Origin of natures lefthandedness Standard Model: Elektroweak interaction 100% lefthanded Grand unified theories: Universe was left-right symmetric at the beginning Parity violation = 'emergent' Order parameter <100% Neutron decay: Correlation B + A: Mass right handed W-Boson: m R > 280 GeV/c2 Phase: < < 0.07

Hartmut Abele, University of Heidelberg 9 Parity violation: spontaneous symmetry breaking 2 bosons (W 1, W 2 ) in the symmetric base; W 2 very heavy SM: = 0, m W2 = Why do we measure B? Manifest Left Right Symmetric Models [eg: PRL 38, 22 (1977)]
