Helicity and chirality are related concepts in molecular structures. Helicity refers to the direction of a spiral or twist in a molecule, while chirality refers to the asymmetry of a molecule that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image. In some cases, the helicity of a molecule can determine its chirality, but not always.

Which helicity state of an unpolarized neutron beam will be more strongly absorbed by a helium-3 target polarized with its speed along the neutron beam axis?
If the 3He target has its spin polarized along the axis of the neutron beam, you may consider that the protons' spin will be canceling out and the spin will be more-or-less carried by the one neutron. Thus it will prefer to absorb neutrons polarized in the opposite direction, ie negative helicity.

What are atmospheric and hydrospheric conditions associated with the formation of hurricanes tornadoes and thunderstorms?
The main ideal conditions for thunderstorms:Plenty of warm, moist air in the lower atmosphereTemperatures that drop quickly with increasing altitude (instability)Some mechanism to nudge the warm, moist air upward. This mechanism could be a front, a low pressure system, a sea breeze, or even wind going over a hill or mountain.For hurricanes:Plenty of warm, moist air in the lower atmosphere.Very warm ocean water to ensure a continuous moisture supplyLittle to no wind shear*An area of disturbed weather to start the system.For tornadoes:Plenty of warm, moist air in the lower atmosphereHigh instabilityA strong lifting mechanismStrong wind shear with helicity**Wind shear is a change in the speed and direction of wind with changing altitude. Helicity, which often develops from wind shear, is a rolling motion in the air. Wind shear can disrupt the organized structure of a hurricane but, coupled with helicity, gives thunderstorms the rotation they need to produce tornadoes.
Which conditions is a tornado most likely to occur?
Tornadoes are most likely to occur when a cold front or dry line is moving into an area, providing weak to modest lift in an area of sufficient instability with strong low level wind shear, high helicity, and that has an inversion cap.
Is the Storm Prediction Center's risk scale virtually useless since it has no objective basis?
No. For one thing, while there is a great deal of subjectivity, it is based on objective parameters such as wind shear, helicity, and instability. Second, it does provide a good general idea of the magnitude of the risk and which areas are at the greatest risk. The issuing of a high-risk outlook prior to the tornado outbreak of April 14, 2012 probably saved lives.

How do neutrinos differ from photon?
A photon is a unit of light and has a mass of 0 where is a Neutrino has a small but nonzero mass. Neutrino's are similar to electrons in most regards, except neutrino's have no charge. Where photon's travel at the speed of light neutrino's come close but do not.
What conditions are necessary for tornadoes to get stronger?
A strong tornado generally requires a strong supercell with especially strong rotation. Such storms become stronger if the atmosphere is very unstable, meaning it is very warm and moist in the lower atmosphere and very cold in the upper atmosphere. Rotation comes from wind shear, a condition where wind speed and direction varies with altitude. The wind shear gives rise to horizontally rolling masses of air. The stronger this helicity is the more potential exists for strong tornadoes.
