Fundamental Physics and Molecular Chirality: Parity Violation and Spin–Orbit Coupling as Independent, Not Unified, Origins

Two independent lines of physics have each been proposed to connect fundamental particle interactions to the chirality-dependent behavior of molecules relevant to life: electroweak parity violation (PV), a minute Z⁰-exchange-mediated energy splitting between enantiomers hypothesi...
