chiral symmetry
21Rotational symmetry — Generally speaking, an object with rotational symmetry is an object that looks the same after a certain amount of rotation. An object may have more than one rotational symmetry; for instance, if reflections or turning it over are not counted, the …
22Dihedral symmetry in three dimensions — This article deals with three infinite sequences of point groups in three dimensions which have a symmetry group that as abstract group is a dihedral group Dihn ( n ≥ 2 ). See also point groups in two dimensions. Chiral: Dn (22n) of… …
23Solids with icosahedral symmetry — olids with full icosahedral symmetry (For details see below.) Platonic solids regular polyhedra (all faces of the same type) {5,3} {3,5}Archimedean solids polyhedra with more than one polygon face type. 3.10.10 4.6.10 5.6.6 3.4.5.4 3.5.3.5Catalan …
24QCD vacuum — The QCD vacuum is the vacuum state of quantum chromodynamics (QCD). It is an example of a non perturbative vacuum state, characterized by many non vanishing condensates such as the gluon condensate or the quark condensate. These condensates… …

26Chirality (physics) — A chiral phenomenon is one that is not identical to its mirror image (see Chirality). The spin of a particle may be used to define a handedness (aka chirality) for that particle. A symmetry transformation between the two is called parity.… …
27Flavour (particle physics) — In particle physics, flavour or flavor (see spelling differences) is a quantum number of elementary particles related to their weak interactions. In the electroweak theory this symmetry is gauged, and flavour changing processes exist. In quantum… …
28Nambu–Jona-Lasinio model — In quantum field theory, the Nambu–Jona Lasinio model (or more precisely: the Nambu and Jona Lasinio model) is a theory of nucleons and mesons constructed from interacting Dirac fermions with chiral symmetry which parallels the construction of… …

30Chirality (mathematics) — In geometry, a figure is chiral (and said to have chirality) if it is not identical to its mirror image, or, more precisely, if it cannot be mapped to its mirror image by rotations and translations alone. For example, a right shoe is different… …
