Abstract
The wavefunctions of atomic electrons acquire small admixtures of the opposite parity as a consequence of the weak electron-nucleon interaction. Equations for determining this admixture in the context of the multiconfiguration Dirac-Fock (MCDF) method are presented in outline and their solution is briefly described. Preliminary results for lines of Bi, Pb, Ti and Cs of experimental interest are given in the text.Keywords
