We place new limits on potential T- and P- violating monopole-dipole interactions between unpolarized nucleons and neutrons using dual species magnetic resonance in polarzed Xe gas. Free-induction decay transients with relaxation times ~20 s allow high precision measurements of the NMR frequencies, whose ratios cancel magnetic fluctuations. The new limits on the product gsgp improve on previous laboratory work by 2 orders of magnitude.

We calculate interaction constants for the contributions from PT-odd scalar-pseudoscalar and tensor-pseudotensor operators to the electric dipole moment of ${}^{129}$Xe, for the first time in case of the former, using relativistic many-body theory in cluding the effects of dynamical electron correlations. These interaction constants are necessary ingredients to relating the corresponding measurements to fundamental parameters in models of physics beyond the Standard Model. We obtain $alpha_{C_S} = left( 0.71 pm 0.18 right) [10^{-23}, e~text{cm}]$ and $alpha_{C_T}= left( 0.520 pm 0.049 right) [10^{-20}, left<Sigmaright>_{text{Xe}}, e~text{cm}]$, respectively. We apply our results to test a phenomenological relation between the two quantities, commonly used in the literature, and discuss their present and future phenomenological impact.

We report on the operation of co-located ${}^{129}$Xe and ${}^{131}$Xe nuclear spin masers with an external feedback scheme, and discuss the use of ${}^{131}$Xe as a comagnetometer in measurements of the ${}^{129}$Xe spin precession frequency. By app lying a correction based on the observed change in the ${}^{131}$Xe frequency, the frequency instability due to magnetic field and cell temperature drifts are eliminated by two orders of magnitude. The frequency precision of 6.2 $mu$Hz is obtained for a 10$^4$ s averaging time, suggesting the possibility of future improvement to $approx$ 1 nHz by improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the observation.
A search for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) was conducted with the single-phase liquid-xenon detector XMASS through inelastic scattering in which $^{129}$Xe nuclei were excited, using an exposure ($rm 327; kg times 800.0 ; days$) 48 tim es larger than that of our previous study. The inelastic excitation sensitivity was improved by detailed evaluation of background, event classification based on scintillation timing that distinguished $gamma$-rays and $beta$-rays, and simultaneous fitting of the energy spectra of $gamma$-like and $beta$-like samples. No evidence of a WIMP signal was found. Thus, we set the upper limits of the inelastic channel cross section at 90% confidence level, for example, $4.1times 10^{-39} ;{rm cm^2}$ for a $200; {rm GeV}/c^2$ WIMP. This result provides the most stringent limits on the SD WIMP-neutron interaction and is better by a factor of 7.7 at $200;{rm GeV}/c^2$ than the existing experimental limit.
Accurate evaluation of the $mathcal{P}$,$mathcal{T}$-odd Faraday effect (rotation of the polarization plane for the light propagating through a medium in presence of an external electric field) is presented. This effect can arise only due to the $mat hcal{P}$,$mathcal{T}$-odd interactions and is different from the ordinary Faraday effect, i.e. the light polarization plane rotation in an external magnetic field. The rotation angle is evaluated for the ICAS (intracavity absorption spectroscopy) type experiments with Xe and Hg atoms. The results show that Hg atom may become a good candidate for a search for the $mathcal{P}$,$mathcal{T}$-odd effects in atomic physics.

A search for inelastic scattering of Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) on the isotope $^{129}$Xe was done in data taken with the single phase liquid xenon detector XMASS at the Kamioka Observatory. Using a restricted volume containing 41 k g of LXe at the very center of our detector we observed no significant excess of events in 165.9 days of data. Our background reduction allowed us to derive our limits without explicitly subtracting the remaining events which are compatible with background expectations and derive for e.g. a 50 GeV WIMP an upper limit for its inelastic cross section on $^{129}$Xe nuclei of 3.2 pb at the 90% confidence level.
