Abstract

Parity violation in p-wave neutron resonances of ¹²¹Sb, ¹²³Sb, and ¹²⁷I has been measured by transmission of a longitudinally polarized neutron beam through natural antimony and iodine targets. The measurements were performed at the pulsed spallation neutron source of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center. Five statistically significant parity violation effects were observed in ¹²¹Sb, one effect in ¹²³Sb, and seven effects in ¹²⁷I. The weak interaction rms matrix elements and the corresponding spreading widths were determined.
