Abstract
Chemistry seminar by Prof. Yves Geerts (Université Libre de Bruxelles) on historical attempts by Pasteur and Curie to direct chiral symmetry breaking with external fields, why they failed, and how chirality-induced spin selectivity (CISS) under non-equilibrium conditions now enables enantiomer separation and control of molecular handedness.
