A self-consistent treatment of the parity non-conserving interaction in atoms

The Weinberg-Salam model of the weak interaction predicts that any wavefunction contains a small admixture of functions of the opposite parity. As a result, radiative transitions which would have pure magnetic dipole (M1) character in the absence of weak parity mixing interactions acquire a small co...
