SUMMARY:Atomic clocks\, fundamental symmetries\, and the search for ne
 w physics\, Atomic Physics Seminar\, Marianna Safronova\, University o
 f Delaware
DESCRIPTION:I will give an overview of searches for new physics with a
 tomic systems\, including the study of parity violation\, search for E
 DM\, and the search for variation of fundamental constants. The study 
 of parity nonconservation in cesium led to a first measurement of the 
 nuclear anapole moment and allowed to place constraints on weak meson-
 nucleon couplings. I will review the present status of atomic parity v
 iolation studies and the implications for searches for physics beyond 
 the standard model and study of weak hadronic interactions. In the sec
 ond part of my talk\, I will discuss the state-of-the art atomic clock
  development focusing on the issue of the blackbody radiation shifts a
 s well as application of clocks to the searches for variation of the f
 ine-structure constant.
