Weak-interaction experiments at low energies: Results from atomic and nuclear physics
Abstract
Experimental results in the following areas are reviewed: the parity violating eN force, the parity violating NN force, the (MU) sub e mass, and the electric dipole moment of the neutron. The standard model accounts well for most of the data in atomic and nuclear parity violation. The evidence for a finite neutrino mass suggests that modification to the standard model is required while the neutron electric dipole moment provides a constraint on theories of CP nonconservation.
