Weak interactions within a nucleus generate a nuclear spin dependent parity violating electromagnetic moment; the anapole moment. In heavy nuclei, the anapole moment is the dominant contribution to spin-dependent atomic parity violation. We…
Nuclear forces violating parity and time reversal invariance (${\cal P},{\cal T}$-odd) produce ${\cal P},{\cal T}$-odd nuclear moments, for example, the nuclear Schiff moment. In turn, this moment can induce the electric dipole moment in…
The electric dipole moment of the electron (eEDM) is a signature of CP-violating physics beyond the Standard Model. We describe an ongoing experiment to measure or set improved limits to the eEDM, using a cold beam of thorium monoxide (ThO)…

The $P$ and $T$ odd deuteron multipoles are calculated in the Reid nucleon-nucleon potential in the chiral limit $m_{\pi}\to 0$. The contact current generated by the $\pi$-meson exchange does not contribute to the anapole moment. The…
Until this day no electric dipole moment of the neutron (nEDM) has been observed. Why it is so vanishing small, escaping detection in the last 50 years, is not easy to explain. In general it is considered as the most sensitive probe for the…

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.
The experimental limit on the electron electric dipole moment constraints the pattern of supersymmetric grand-unified theories with right-handed neutrinos. We show that such contraints are already competing with the well known ones derived…
We describe the finite volume effects of CP-odd quantities, such as the neutron electric dipole moment and the anapole moment in the $\theta$-vacuum, under different topological sectors. We evaluate the three-point Green's functions for the…
We demonstrate that electron electric dipole moment experiments with molecules in paramagnetic state are sensitive to $P,T$-violating nuclear forces and other $CP$-violating parameters in the hadronic sector. These experiments, in…
