Abstract

The l and d enantiomers of a chiral iron complex were analyzed using Moessbauer spectra. The experiments revealed the energy shift of the spectral data of iron with respect to the two enantiomers. The application of scaling law confirmed the existence of small energy differences as being comparable to the parity-violating energy differences (PEVD).
