In this paper, we have calculated parity nonconserving electric dipole transition amplitudes of the hyperfine components for the transitions between the ground and first excited states of $^{137}$Ba$^{+}$ and $^{87}$Sr$^{+}$ using sum-over-states technique. The results are presented to extract the constants associated with the nuclear spin dependent amplitudes from experimental measurements. The wavefunctions to calculate the most dominant part of the sums are constructed using highly correlated coupled-cluster theory based on the Dirac-Coulomb-Gaunt Hamiltonian.

The zero crossing of the dynamic differential scalar polarizability of the $S_{1/2}-D_{5/2}$ clock transition in $^{138}$Ba$^+$ has been determined to be $459.1614(28),$THz. Together with previously determined matrix elements and branching ratios, this tightly constrains the dynamic differential scalar polarizability of the clock transition over a large wavelength range ($gtrsim 700,$nm). In particular it allows an estimate of the blackbody radiation shift of the clock transition at room temperature.
Measurement of the $^{138}$Ba$^+$ ${}^2S_{1/2} - {}^2D_{5/2}$ clock transition frequency and $D_{5/2}$ Lande $g_J$ factor are reported. The clock transition frequency $ u_{mathrm{Ba}^+}=170,126,432,449,333.31pm(0.39)_mathrm{stat}pm(0.29)_mathrm{sys},$Hz, is obtained with accuracy limited by the frequency calibration of the maser used as a reference oscillator. The Land{e} $g_J$-factor for the ${}^2D_{5/2}$ level is determined to be $g_{D}=1.200,367,39(24)$, which is a 30-fold improvement on previous measurements. The $g$-factor measurements are corrected for an ac-magnetic field from trap-drive-induced currents in the electrodes, and data taken over a range of magnetic fields underscores the importance of accounting for this systematic.
Using recent high-precision measurements of electric dipole matrix elements of atomic cesium, we make an improved determination of the scalar ($alpha$) and vector ($beta$) polarizabilities of the cesium $6s ^2S_{1/2} rightarrow 7s ^2S_{1/2} $ transition calculated through a sum-over-states method. We report values of $alpha = -268.82 (30) a_0^3$ and $beta = 27.139 (42) a_0^3$ with the highest precision to date. We find a discrepancy between our value of $beta$ and the past preferred value, resulting in a significant shift in the value of the weak charge $Q_w$ of the cesium nucleus. Future work to resolve the differences in the polarizability will be critical for interpretation of parity non-conservation measurements in cesium, which have implications for physics beyond the Standard Model.
We observe a hyperfine anomaly in the measurement of the hyperfine splitting of the 6S_{1/2} excited level in rubidium. We perform two step spectroscopy using the 5S_{1/2}->5P_{1/2}->6S_{1/2} excitation sequence. We measure the splitting of the 6S1/2 level and obtain for the magnetic dipole constants of ^{85}Rb and ^{87}Rb A = 239.18(4) MHz and A=807.66(8) MHz, respectively. The hyperfine anomaly difference of_{87}delta_{85}=-0.0036(2) comes from the Bohr Weisskopf effect: a correction to the point interaction between the finite nuclear magnetization and the electrons, and agrees with that obtained in the 5S_{1/2} ground state.
Employing the relativistic coupled-cluster method, comparative studies of the parity non-conserving electric dipole amplitudes for the $7s ^2S_{1/2} rightarrow 6d ^2D_{5/2}$ transitions in $^{210}$Fr and $^{211}$Fr isotopes have been carried out. It is found that these transition amplitudes, sensitive only to the nuclear spin dependent effects, are enhanced by more than 3 orders compared to the low-lying $S-D_{5/2}$ transitions in Ba$^+$ and Ra$^+$ owing to the very large contributions from the electron core-polarization effects in Fr. This translates to a relatively large and, in principle, measurable induced light shift, which would be a signature of nuclear spin dependent parity nonconservation that is dominated by the nuclear anapole moment in a heavy atom like Fr. A plausible scheme to measure this quantity using the Cyclotron and Radioisotope Center (CYRIC) facility at Tohoku University has been outlined.
