3. Origin of nature’s lefthandedness

Standard Model: Elektroweak interaction 100% lefthanded

Grand unified theories:Universe was left-right symmetric at the beginningParity violation = 'emergent' Order parameter

<100%

Neutron decay: Correlation B + A:Mass right handed W-Boson: mR > 280 GeV/c2

Phase: -0.20 < < 0.07


• Parity violation: spontaneous symmetry breaking

• 2 bosons (W1, W2) in the „symmetric base“; W2 very heavy

SM: = 0, mW2 =

•

Why do we measure B?•
