We present a theoretical study of photoexcitation of highly charged ions from their ground states, a process which can be realized at the Gamma Factory at CERN. Special attention is paid to the question of how the excitation rates are affected by the mixing of opposite-parity ionic levels, which is induced both by an external electric field and the weak interaction between electrons and the nucleus. In order to reinvestigate this "Stark-plus-weak-interaction" mixing, detailed calculations are performed for the 1s1/2 → 2s1/2 and 1s2 2s1/2 → 1s2 3s1/2 (M1 + parity-violating-E1) transitions in hydrogen- and lithium-like ions, respectively. In particular, we focus on the difference between the excitation rates obtained for right- and left-circularly polarized incident light. This difference arises due to the parity violating mixing of ionic levels.
