Abstract
Fundamental symmetries are being investigated in oriented182W via measurements of angular correlations of the gamma rays emitted following beta-decay of182Ta. Nuclear orientation is achieved via hyperfine interactions in Fe with the help of a dilution refrigerator. In particular, the hindered 1189 keV transition is studied for P and PT violation. Current limits and future studies of P, PT and T violation in this and other nuclei are discussed.
