We present the results of our calculations of the parity nonconserving electric dipole amplitudes ($E1_{PNC}$) for the $6s ~ ^2S_{1/2} - 5d ~ ^2D_{3/2;5/2}$ transitions of $^{133}$Cs employing a relativistic coupled-cluster (RCC) method.…
Nuclei with spin $I \ge 1$ have a weak quadrupole moment which leads to tensor contribution to the parity non-conserving interaction between nuclei and electrons. We calculate this contribution for Yb$^+$, Fr and Ra$^+$ and found it to be…
