  1. Muon Decay

    Linked via "charge conjugation"

    The Role of Chirality and Helicity
    The decay process is intrinsically linked to the concept of chirality, reflecting the weak interaction's preference for left-handed fermions and right-handed antifermions. In the rest frame of the muon, the emitted electron is observed to have a preferred momentum direction relative to the muon's spin. This preferred direction is crucial for verifying the conservation of parity ($P$) and charge conjugation ($C$).
    When parity is conserved, the electron is emitted preferen…
