Radiative corrections
Roughly speaking:
1. Vacuum polarization
2. Fermion self-interaction, self-energy and vertex correction

.Vacuum polarization is strong at small distances
How to find the correctio to
wave function at small distances?
Which parameters govern the pronblem?

Estimate for PNC based on available Estimate for PNC based on available data for Finite Nuclear Size (FNS)data for Finite Nuclear Size (FNS)
The correction to the PNC amplitude is equal to the average of the corrections to the FNS energy shifts for S1/2 and P1/2 levels. Kuchiev, Flambaum (2002)
