We examine the time-reversal-violating nuclear ``Schiff moment'' that induces electric dipole moments in atoms. After presenting a self-contained derivation of the form of the Schiff operator, we show that the distribution of Schiff…
There is a large body of evidence that atomic nuclei can undergo octupole distortion and assume the shape of a pear. This phenomenon is important for measurements of electric-dipole moments of atoms, which would indicate CP violation and…
We consider possibilities of observing T-violation effects in neutrino oscillation experiments with very long baseline (~ 10000 km) using low energy neutrino (~ several hundreds MeV). We show that the matter effect effectively changes only…
The sensitivity much better than $10^{-24} e$ cm may be expected in the searches for electric dipole moments (EDM) of $\beta$-active nuclei at ion storage rings. It would be a serious progress in studies of the CP-violation problem.
