2:30pm	George Kalbfleisch

4:00pm	Seminar: Crossing the P's and T's and dotting the a’s testing fundamental symmetries at Berkeley Abstract: We will briefly discuss several experiments testing various fundamental-symmetries using the methods of atomic physics: 1. Measurement of parity violation in atomic ytterbium 2. Exploratory work towards a condensed-matter experiment searching for a parity- and time-reversal-violating nuclear Schiff moment 3. Search for temporal variation of the fine-structure ``constant" with radio-frequency transitions in atomic dysprosium 4. Search for a small violation of Bose-Einstein statistics for photons in two-photon transitions in atomic barium.
