  2. Fundamental Symmetries & Cosmic History What are the fundamental symmetries that have governed the microphysics of the evolving universe? • Parity as a (broken) symmetry • Parity violation as a probe of other symmetries

  9. Fundamental Symmetries & Cosmic History What are the fundamental symmetries that have governed the microphysics of the evolving universe? • Parity violation as a probe of the proton’s internal structure (sea quarks, twist) • Parity violation as probe of the hadronic weak interaction • Parity violation as a probe of additional symmetries of the early universe
