Popis: In connection with a reconsideration of the law of conservation of parity some experiments have been performed with the purpose of detecting longitudinal polarization of electrons emitted in β-decay. It was found that the spin of the emerging β-electrons is opposite to the direction of electron motion. The magnitude of the longitudinal polarization agrees with the theoretical value, v / c , v being the electron velocity.
