Phys. Rev. D 78, 102004 (2008) [5 pages]Constraining long-range parity violation in gravitation using high resolution spectroscopy of chiral moleculesReceived 19 September 2008; published 13 November 2008 New bounds on long-range parity violation in gravitation are reported from inconclusive searches of parity violating energy differences (PVED) in chiral molecules. In particular, it is found that Leitner-Okubo-Hari Dass’s α2 (or A2) parameter is constrained by current experimental searches of PVED between molecular enantiomers. The possibility of constraining other parameters which parametrize the strength of contact parity violation in gravity, as well as other long-range parity violating potentials will be briefly commented. © 2008 The American Physical Society URL:
