Theoretical Studies of PNC in Molecules: current Capabilites, Future Prospects, and Issues
The current capabilities of relativistic electronic structure codes for calculations on molecules such as TlF and YbF, which are of interest in the study of parity non-conservation, will be presented. The issues of basis set size and correlation methods will be discussed, and planned developments of the codes which would extend the range of their capabilities will be outlined. Issues of the sensitivity of the desired properties to the form of the nuclear potential and the flexibility of the wave function near the nucleus will be raised to stimulate discussion.
