Abstract: Results from two teams of particle physicists have provided the first direct evidence that the world is not symmetric with respect to time. The experiments concerned involved tracking the decay of particles called kaons into antikaons, and vice versa. It turns out that the probability of one process happening is greater than the other, indicating asymmetry under time reversal.
