The electric dipole moment (EDM) of the electron, together with the hyperfine coupling, induces an EDM in atoms and molecules with closed electron shells. Experiments with /sup 129/Xe and TIF have yielded bounds on the EDM of the electron (d/Vertical BareVertical Bar = (0.4 +- 1.4) x 10/sup -23/ cm; (0.9 +- 1.3) x 10/sup -23/ cm) and on the T-odd scalar electron-nucleon coupling constant.
