Abstract

The effect of P-odd atomic spin rotation in a laser wave with a finite linewidth is considered. We have shown that laser linewidth is the major source of relaxation, limiting the available value of the spin rotation angle. A project of an atomic beam experiment to observe P-odd atom spin rotation is proposed. It is shown that such an experiment would provide better sensitivity than that of the previous ones.
