cosmology - Baryon asymmetry - Physics Stack Exchange
Baryon asymmetry refers to the observation that apparently there is matter in the Universe but not much antimatter. We don't see galaxies made of antimatter or observe gamma rays that would be prod...
Why doesn't broken inversion symmetry imply piezoelectricity?
Jun 21, 2022 · To see piezoelectricity in a crystalline material, you must have a crystal symmetry which is non-centrosymmetric (i.e. broken inversion symmetry). The reverse is almost always true (i.e. …
