Plenary Talk Session I

Speaker

Prof. Ming-Xing Luo (CSRC)

Description

This talk reviews the historical path from the proposal of parity nonconservation to the establishment of the Standard Model. We trace the development from parity-violation experiments and the V–A theory through current algebra, flavor mixing, CP violation to the electroweak theory and beyond. This evolution illustrates how this brave challenge to a fundamental symmetry reshaped the field of particle physics.
