TLDR
In this paper, the Coulomb correction to the photon spectrum accompanying beta decay is calculated, treating the Coulom field as a perturbation, and the result differs from that of Knipp-Uhlenbeck-Bloch only by the appearance of an extra factor, related to the Sommerfeld factor in ordinary bremsstrahlen.
Abstract
The Coulomb correction to the photon spectrum accompanying beta decay is calculated, treating the Coulomb field as a perturbation. It is shown that for allowed and unique first forbidden transitions, the result differs from that of Knipp-Uhlenbeck-Bloch only by the appearance of an extra factor, related to the Sommerfeld factor in ordinary bremsstrahlen. Analytic formulas are presented for these two selection rules, and a comparison made with recent experiments.

Energy levels of Z = 11−21 nuclei (IV)

P.M. Endt, +1 more
- 04 Dec 1967 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, a compilation of experimentally determined properties of energy levels of Z = 11−21 nuclei with special emphasis on nuclear spectroscopy is presented. But this compilation is limited to the case of nuclear spectrograms.

Parity non-conservation in radiative thermal neutron capture by protons.

TL;DR: In this paper, a light-water neutron trap in the reactor active zone as a γ-ray source was used to measure the circular polarization of the reaction n+p → d+ γ.

High precision analytical description of the allowed β spectrum shape

TL;DR: In this paper, a fully analytical description of the allowed β spectrum shape is given in view of ongoing and planned measurements, which forms an invaluable tool in the search for physics beyond the standard electroweak model and weak magnetism recoil term.

Detour transitions in internal bremsstrahlung

TL;DR: The contribution of detour transitions to the internal bremsstrahlung accom- panying nuclear beta decay is calculated in this paper, where it is shown that such contributions will in general be impor- tant for forbidden beta decays.
