Haxton %J Physics %D 1998 %I arXiv %R 10.1016/S0375-9474(99)00261-4 %X Nuclei are powerful laboratories for studying fundamental symmetries because they filter and enhance specific interactions. I discuss four examples --- hadronic parity violation, atomic electric dipole moments, precision $\beta$ decay tests, and nuclear tests of neutrino masses --- to illustrate some of the progress that has been made in the past few years. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/nucl-th/9812080v1
