Low Energy Tests of the Standard Model with Spin Degrees of Freedom
Abstract
Description
After briefly reviewing the status of the standard model, I will focus mainly on polarized electron scattering and other tests of the weak neutral current. I will also address other low energy tests in which polarization degrees of freedom play a crucial role, including precision muon physics and searches for electric dipole moments.
