Abstract

A collection of experiments which put rather stringent limits on possible violations of conservation laws and related symmetry principles, those which are believed to be universally valid. The evidence for the absolute conservation laws connected with gauge transformations, i.e., the conservation of charge, of baryons, and of leptons is discussed. Finally, discussion is presented on the evidence for the equality of the charges of the various charged elementary particles, and evidence for the conservation of angular momentum, associated with symmetry under space rotations.
