Cracking the Quantum Mirror: Hidden Chirality Found in a Symmetrical Crystal

A Princeton team uncovered a surprising chiral quantum state in a supposedly non-chiral material, shedding light on elusive symmetry-breaking effects and opening doors to new quantum technologies. Chirality, the property of being different from one’s mirror image, has fascinated scientists in fields ranging from biology and chemistry to physics. Often referred to as “handedness,” chirality [...]
