In the long human effort to read the hidden geometry of matter, scientists from three Indian institutions have found a new kind of key — laser light engineered to twist and spin, capable of distinguishing mirror-image molecules by the fragments they leave behind. Just as a screw fits only its matching nut, structured light interacts differently with left- and right-handed molecules, revealing their identity through patterns of charged debris. The technique, tested on camphor in its gaseous form, trades elaborate optical machinery for a direct count of ion signals, offering a simpler path throu
