In recent years, some large physics experiments worldwide have been trying to gather evidence of a nuclear process known as neutrinoless double beta (0νββ) decay. This is a rare process that entails ...
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 ...
Radionuclide metrology and beta decay studies represent a cornerstone of modern nuclear science, merging refined measurement techniques with advanced theoretical modelling to quantify radioactivity ...
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 ...
The study of heavy flavour physics focuses on the behaviour of particles containing heavy quarks, such as the bottom (b) and charm (c) quarks, within the framework of the Standard Model and beyond.
