The magnetic dipole interaction played a central role in the development of QED, and continued in that role for the Standard Model. The muon anomalous magnetic moment has served as a benchmark for models of new physics, and the present…
Symmetry-violating observables such as the nuclear anapole and Schiff moments provide sensitive probes of the fundamental symmetries of nature and physics beyond the Standard Model. Their interpretation has been hindered, however, by the…
The anapole moment of a charged scalar particle is studied in a model independent fashion, using the effective Lagrangian technique, as well as radiatively within the context of scalar quantum electrodynamics (SQED). It is shown that this…
The magnetic field generated by a bound muon in heavy muonic atoms results in an induced nuclear magnetic dipole moment even for otherwise spinless nuclei. This dipole moment interacts with the muon, altering the binding energy of the…

Time-Reversal-Invariance non-conservation has for the first time been unequivocally demonstrated in a direct measurement, one of the results of the CPLEAR experiment. What is the situation then with regard to time-reversal-invariance…
Collective effects in deformed atomic nuclei present possible avenues of study on the non-spherical distribution of neutrons and the violation of the local Lorentz invariance. We introduce the weak quadrupole moment of nuclei, related to…
A permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of a particle or system is a separation of charge along its angular-momentum axis and is a direct signal of T-violation and, assuming CPT symmetry, CP violation. For over sixty years EDMs have been…
We introduce the strong CP-violation in the framework of AdS/QCD model and calculate the electric dipole moments of nucleons as well as the CP-violating pion-nucleon coupling. Our holographic estimate of the electric dipole moments gives…
We offer the hypothesis that atomic nuclei, nucleons, and atoms possess a new type of electromagnetic moment, that we call a ``cyclo-toroid moment''. In nuclei, this moment arises when the toroid dipole (anapole) moments are arrayed in the…
For decades the primary experimental goal in studies of hadronic parity nonconservation (PNC) has been the isolation of the isovector weak nucleon-nucleon interaction, expected to be dominated by long-range pion exchange and enhanced by the…
We construct the relationship between nonrenormalizable,effective, time-reversal violating (TV) parity-conserving (PC) interactions of quarks and gauge bosons and various low-energy TVPC and TV parity-violating (PV) observables. Using…
Electric quadrupole (E2) matrix elements provide a measure of nuclear deformation and related collective structure. Ground-state quadrupole moments in particular are known to high precision in many p-shell nuclei. While the experimental…
We consider the implications of experimental limits on the permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the electron and neutron for possible new parity-conserving (PC) time-reversal violating (TV) interactions. We show that the constraints…
We calculate the parity non-conserving (PNC) electric-dipole ($E1$) transition amplitudes for the $5s - 6s$ and $5s - 4d_{3/2}$ transitions in Rb and Sr$^+$. Our results include both the nuclear-spin-independent and nuclear-spin-dependent…
Neutral molecules with sufficiently large dipole moments can bind electrons in diffuse nonvalence orbitals with most of their charge density far from the nuclei, forming so-called dipole-bound anions. Because long-range correlation effects…
