Indeed, the authors find no evidence for neutrinoless double-β decay, showing that, if the decay exists, its half-life must be longer than 1.07 × 10 26 years, which is more than 7 × 10 15 times ...

β (beta) decay: where an atomic nucleus converts a neutron into a proton while spitting out an electron (a β-particle) and an anti-electron neutrino, moving up 1 element on the periodic table, ...

Indeed, the EXO-200 experiment was the first to observe this decay in xenon-136 in 2011. But the other type of double β decay – the elusive and currently unseen neutrinoless double β decay – is what ...

ACCORDING to the Fermi theory of β-decay, the β-curve representing the number of electrons with a given energy lying in the interval of the transition energy of the nucleus, is governed by a ...

This sensitive β-decay experiment was utilized to constrain the spins assigned for low-lying energy levels of 158Pm and the ground state of 158Pm. A correlation method was employed to deduce the ...

Sources of β particles include phosphorus-32 decaying into sulphur-32, or the decay of muons, elementary particles produced at the end of a chain of decays that begin when cosmic ray particles ...

Angular Correlations in the β Decay of B8: First Tensor-Current Limits from a Mirror-Nucleus Pair. Physical Review Letters, 2023; 130 (19) DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.130.192502; ...
