Coulomb corrections to superallowed beta decay in nuclei

Nuclear Theory 2009-11-13 v1

Abstract

Corrections to the superallowed beta decay matrix elements are evaluated in perturbation theory using the notion of the isovector monopole resonance. The calculation avoids the separation into different contributions and thus presents a consistent, systematic and more transparent approach. Explicit expressions for the Coulomb correction as a function of mass number A, are given.
