Phase space factors for double-$\beta$ decay

Nuclear Theory 2012-09-26 v1

Abstract

A complete and improved calculation of phase space factors (PSF) for 2νββ2\nu\beta\beta and 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta decay is presented. The calculation makes use of exact Dirac wave functions with finite nuclear size and electron screening and includes life-times, single and summed electron spectra, and angular electron correlations.
