Nuclear-structure effects on parity nonconservation in light nuclei

Journal Article · · Phys. Rev. Lett.; (United States)
; ;
The nucleon-nucleon parity-nonconserving potentials given by Desplangues, Donoghue, and Holstein (DDH) are used to calculate matrix elements between states of opposite parity in /sup 10/B, /sup 16/O, /sup 18/F, /sup 19/F, /sup 20/Ne, and /sup 21/Ne. The sensitivity of the parity-nonconserving matrix elements to various approximations in the microscopic shell-model wave functions is investigated. The final results using the DDH estimates for the weak meson-nucleon coupling constants based on the Weinberg-Salam theory are several times larger than experiment.
