• Is CPT symmetry still valid for macroscopic physics? (proposed test wit

    There are lots of microscopic CPT tests (
    https://arxiv.org/pdf/0801.0287 ), but it seems there is missing a real macroscopic one (?) - test if CPT analogue of a setting works as it
    should.

    The diagram show such proposed test - this symmetry suggests existence
    of looking unknown effect e.g. for ring laser, with potentially lots of
    new applications (like quantum computing) - increase probability of
    directional deexcitation of target.

    I am searching for access to one/collaboration to test its
    existence. Negative effect would be also interesting as suggesting
    macroscopic violation of CPT symmetry. Please contact me if interested.

    Ring lasers allow for nearly unidirectional photon trajectories. Looking
    from perspective after applied CPT symmetry to the shown setting,
    photons would travel in the opposite direction - causing excitation of
    the target (lamp).

    Going back from CPT to to the original perspective, the above means
    laser causes deexictation of the target. (lamp continuously excited in corresponding spectrum, increased probability of directional
    deexcitation in addition to standard isotropic radiation).
