Radionuclide metrology and beta decay studies represent a cornerstone of modern nuclear science, merging refined measurement techniques with advanced theoretical modelling to quantify radioactivity ...
In nuclear beta decay an up quark ‘u’ in a proton converts into an up down quark ‘d,’ turning the proton into a neutron and emitting a positron and a neutrino. This work affects interpretation of beta ...
Double beta decay, one of the rarest nuclear processes, offers a unique portal into the fundamental properties of neutrinos and the conservation of lepton number. Experimental strategies have evolved ...
First author of the publication Guy Leckenby works at the storage ring ESR at GSI/FAIR. Current calculations estimate that the formation of our Sun from the progenitor molecular cloud took about a few ...
