Abstract

Contributions from the Breit interaction in atomic structure calculations account for 1.3sigma of the previously reported 2. 5sigma deviation from the standard model in the 133Cs weak charge [S. C. Bennett and C. E. Wieman, Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 2484 (1999)]. The updated corrections for the neutron distribution reduce the discrepancy further to 1.0sigma. The updated value of the weak charge is Q(W)(133Cs) = -72.65(28)(expt)(34)(theor).
