Research Abstract |
The present study is to clarify molecular parity violation hypothesis, suggesting from recent developments in physical cosmology and particle physics, including inflation theory, thermal fluctuation in cosmic microwave background, expanding universe acceleration, cosmic symmetry breaking, four fundamental forces, P- and CP-symmetry breaking, quantized gravity, spiral gravity wave, and handed anti-neutrino. A coacervate hypothesis inspired by modern optofluidics and advanced reflection-refraction theory of circularly polarized light allows us to test non-conventional generation of several optically active polymers as aggregates from the corresponding optically inactive polymers with helps of limonene as external chiral chemical bias and photonic spin as external chiral physical biases. Our experimental demonstrations should infer a possibility that these aggregates feel handed physical forces existing our universe and elemental particles.
