We discuss the propagation of hydrogen atoms in static electric and magnetic fields in a longitudinal atomic beam spin echo (lABSE) apparatus. There the atoms acquire geometric (Berry) phases that exhibit a new manifestation of parity-(P-)violation in atomic physics. We provide analytical as well as numerical calculations of the behaviour of the metastable 2S states of hydrogen. The conditions for electromagnetic field configurations that allow for adiabatic evolution of the relevant atomic states are investigated. Our results provide the theoretical basis for the discussion of possible measurements of P-violating geometric phases in lABSE experiments.

We discuss the propagation of hydrogen atoms in static electric and magnetic fields in a longitudinal atomic beam spin echo (lABSE) apparatus. Depending on the choice of the external fields the atoms may acquire both dynamical and geometrical quantum
mechanical phases. As an example of the former, we show first in-beam spin rotation measurements on atomic hydrogen, which are in excellent agreement with theory. Additional calculations of the behaviour of the metastable 2S states of hydrogen reveal that the geometrical phases may exhibit the signature of parity-(P-)violation. This invites for possible future lABSE experiments, focusing on P-violating geometrical phases in the lightest of all atoms.
A concise review of atomic parity violation with a focus on the measurement and interpretation of parity violation in cesium.
We propose a method for measuring parity violation in neutral atoms. It is an adaptation of a seminal work by Fortson [Phys. Rev. Lett. {bf 70}, 2383 (1993)], proposing a scheme for a single trapped ion. In our version, a large sample of neutral atom
s should be localised in an optical lattice overlapping a grid of detection sites, all tailored as the single site in Fortsons work. The methodology is of general applicability, but as an example we estimate the achievable signal in an experiment probing a nuclear spin independent parity violation on the line $6mathrm{s},^2mathrm{S}_{1/2}$--$5mathrm{d},^2mathrm{D}_{3/2}$ in $^{133}$Cs. The projected result is based on realistic parameters and textit{ab initio} calculations of transition amplitudes, using the relativistic coupled-cluster method. The final result is a predicted spectroscopic signature, evidencing parity violation, of the order of 1 Hz, for a sample of $10^8$ atoms. We show that a total interrogation time of 30000 s should suffice for achieving a precision of the order of 0.1% --- surpassing previous determinations of the weak charge in Cs by at least a factor of five.
Atomic Parity Violation provides the rare opportunity of a low energy window into possible new fundamental processes at very high mass scales normally investigated at large high energy accelerators. Precise measurements on atomic systems are currentl
y the most sensitive probes of many kinds of new physics, and complement high energy experiments. Present atomic experiments are beginning to reach their limits of precision due to either sensitivity, systematics or atomic structure uncertainties. An experiment in a single trapped Barium ion can improve on all of these difficulties. This experiment uses methods to precisely manipulate and detect the spin state of a single ion in order to measure a parity induced splitting of the ground state magnetic sublevels in externally applied laser fields. The same methods can be used to provide precise measurements of more conventional atomic structure parameters.
Nuclear spin-dependent parity violation arises from weak interactions between electrons and nucleons, and from nuclear anapole moments. We outline a method to measure such effects, using a Stark-interference technique to determine the mixing between
opposite-parity rotational/hyperfine levels of ground-state molecules. The technique is applicable to nuclei over a wide range of atomic number, in diatomic species that are theoretically tractable for interpretation. This should provide data on anapole moments of many nuclei, and on previously unmeasured neutral weak couplings.
