Relativistic corrections to the nuclear Schiff moment
Parity and time invariance violating (-odd) atomic electric dipole
moments (EDM) are induced by interaction between atomic electrons and nuclear
-odd moments which are produced by -odd nuclear forces. The nuclear
EDM is screened by atomic electrons. The EDM of a non-relativistic atom with
closed electron subshells is induced by the nuclear Schiff moment. For heavy
relativistic atoms EDM is induced by the nuclear local dipole moments which
differ by 10-50% from the Schiff moments calculated previously.
We calculate the local dipole moments for and where the most accurate atomic and molecular EDM measurements have been
performed.Comment: 3 pages, no figures, brief repor
The anisotropic Heisenberg chain in coexisting transverse and longitudinal magnetic fields
The one-dimensional spin-1/2 model in a mixed transverse and
longitudinal magnetic field is studied. Using the specially developed version
of the mean-field approximation the order-disorder transition induced by the
magnetic field is investigated. The ground state phase diagram is obtained. The
behavior of the model in low transverse field is studied on the base of
conformal field theory. The relevance of our results to the observed phase
transition in the quasi-one-dimensional antiferromagnet is
discussed.Comment: 18 pages, 6 figure
