Tsung-Dao Lee (born 1926) disproved the principle of parity. Tsung-Dao Lee and his colleague physicist Chen Ning Yang developed the revolutionary theory that the unusual behavior of the K-meson (a subatomic particle) is a result of its violating a...

Tsung-Dao Lee and his colleague, physicist Chen Ning Yang, developed the revolutionary theory that the unusual behavior of the K meson (a subatomic particle) is a result of its violating a supposedly inviolable law of nature, conservation of parity ,...
