...field of science and education, the University cannot risk being out-shone by the Nobel Prize Committee and will therefore grant a degree to Chen Ning Yang, present Loeb Lecturer in Physics here and one of the young Columbia professors who upset the Law of Parity last fall...
...Chen Ning Yang, professor of Physics at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton, described the events leading to his Nobel Prize-winning discovery of the non-conservation of parity at the first Morris Loeb Physics Lecture yesterday...
...Parity Killers. Two young Chinese living in the U.S., Drs. Chen Ning Yang and Tsung Dao Lee, split the Nobel physics prize for destroying the principle of "Conservation of Parity," on which a good deal of modern physics had been based. The principle says that objects which are mirror images of each other must obey the same physical rules. As Drs. Yang and Lee dug deep into the mysteries of the matter, they felt that they could not do without parity, but they found several basic things that could not be explained if parity were observed with full reverence...
...Chen Ning Yang, professor in the School of Mathematics at the Institute, and Tsung Dao Lee, a Columbia professor studying on leave of absence at the Institute, had won the highest award in Physics for their achievement in the area of elementary particles. They had shown that nature can distinguish between her right and left hand and thus had shattered one of the foundations of physical sciences...
