Description

Parity nonconservation has now been measured in a number of atoms. The measurements and the theoretical calculations for atomic cesium are now sufficiently accurate that it is a useful test of the standard model. A general overview of the field is presented, followed by a brief discussion of the Colorado cesium experiment. (author) 8 refs., 5 figs., 1 tab
