Silver-110’s decay reveals a promising path to measure antineutrino mass. New data could reshape future neutrino studies.

But axions were pushed aside as the WIMPs hypothesis gained more steam. Back-of-the-envelope calculations showed that the ...

Weak forces have been stopping us from decoding quark mixing, but not anymore Humans can’t change their nature and type but quarks can. This quark mixing has been a puzzle, but now we have a ...

Another form of beta decay is beta minus decay, which involves the weak force causing a neutron to change into a proton. This process creates an electron and an electron antineutrino. It also ...

Some nuclear reactions involve only the first generation of particles (which are the most common by far), the up and down quarks, and the electrons. Here, electron-neutrinos are involved.

In the talk, I will describe three different approaches using nuclear beta decay to search for beyond standard model physics in the weak sector: (i) super-allowed Fermi 0+ - 0+ decays, (ii) ...

Summary A team of nuclear scientists from Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Argonne National Laboratory, and Louisiana State University precisely measured the beta-decay properties of the ...

In a new study, researchers aim to enhance our understanding of the weak nuclear force by analyzing beta decays of “mirror” nuclei, such as lithium-8 and boron-8. In mirror nuclei, the number of ...
