We have estimated the size of the light-shifts due to parity nonconservation (PNC) interactions in different isotopes of Ba+ and Ra+ ions based on the work of Fortson [Phys. Rev. Lett. 70, 2383 (1993)]. We have used the nuclear spin…
As known, electron vacuum polarization by nuclear Coulomb field produces Uehling potential with the range $\hbar/2m_e c$. Similarly, neutrino vacuum polarization by $Z$ boson field produces long range potential $\sim G^2/r^5$ with the large…
We calculate parity non-conservation (PNC) amplitudes for all magnetic-dipole (M1) transitions within the ground $5p^2$ configuration of Sn. Among the transitions considered, the $^1$S$_0$-$^3$P$_1$ transition has the largest PNC amplitude…
The weak interaction does not conserve parity and therefore induces energy shifts in chiral enantiomers that should in principle be detectable in molecular spectra. Unfortunately, the magnitude of the expected shifts are small and in…
