Open-shell non-rigid molecular systems exhibiting an internal rotation are likely candidates for a coupling between the spin angular momentum of the unpaired electron and the torsional motion. This electron spin-torsion coupling lacked both…
Neutron spin rotation is expected from quark-quark weak interactions in the Standard Model, which induce weak interactions among nucleons that violate parity. We present the results from an experiment searching for the effect of parity…

In coupled rotor models which describe identical rotating nuclei the nuclear spin states restrict the possible angular momenta of each molecule. There are two mean-field approaches to determining the orientational phase diagrams in such…
The theoretical aspects of spin-rotation coupling are presented. The approach is based on the general covariance principle. It is shown that the gyrogravitational ratio of the bare spin-1/2 and the spin-1 particles is equal unity. That is…
Recently, methanol was identified as a sensitive target system to probe variations of the proton-to-electron mass ratio $\mu$ [Jansen \emph{et al.} Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{106}, 100801 (2011)]. The high sensitivity of methanol originates…
