Longitudinal vector form factors in weak decays of nuclei

Abstract

The longitudinal form factors of the weak vector current of particles with spin J=1/2 J = 1/2 and isospin I=1/2 I = 1/2 are determined by the mass difference and the charge radii of members of the isotopic doublets. The most promising reactions to measure these form factors are the reactions with large momentum transfers involving the spin-1/2 isotopic doublets with a maximum mass splitting. Numerical estimates of longitudinal form factors are given for nucleons and eight nuclear spin-1/2 isotopic doublets.
