February 15, 1957 | Physical Review | Chien-Shiung Wu, E. Ambler | Experimental Test of Parity Conservation in Beta Decay | Wu’s famous experiment that confirmed the Lee-Yang suggestion that left-right symmetry is not conserved in weak interactions. Another concurrently published experiment by Garwin and Lederman confirmed the theory in meson decays. |

February 13, 1997 | Nature | Parity and chivalry in nuclear physics | Argument by Oxford physicists for greater credit for parity violation experiment to the NBS team. Does Wu bear responsibility for others who have called it the Wu experiment, downplaying the NBS contribution. Garwin and Lederman replied in a letter to the editor. |
