Single beta decay of 115In to the first excited level of 115Sn (Eexc = 497.3 keV) is known as beta decay with the lowest Q value. To determine the Q precisely, one has to measure very accurately the Eexc value. A sample of tin enriched in…

An exactly solvable model is introduced, which is equivalent to the exact shell-model treatment of protons and neutrons in a single j-shell for Fermi-type excitations. Exact energies, quasiparticle numbers and double beta decay Fermi…
Determinations of vuds with super-allowed Fermi beta-decay in nuclei and of the weak charge of the cesium in atomic parity-violation deviate from the Standard Model predicitions by 2 sigma or more. In both cases, the Standard Model…
The possibility of observing neutrinoless double beta decay offers the opportunity of determining the neutrino mass IF the nuclear matrix element were known. Theoretical calculations are uncertain and measurements of the occupations of…

A two-neutron unbound excited state of $^{24}$O was populated through a (d,d') reaction at 83.4 MeV/nucleon. A state at $E = 715 \pm 110$ (stat) $\pm 45 $ (sys) keV with a width of $\Gamma < 2$ MeV was observed above the two-neutron…

Superscaling analysis of electroweak nuclear response functions is done for momentum transfer values from 300 to 700 MeV/c. Some effects, absent in the Relativistic Fermi Gas model, where the superscaling holds by construction, are…
As shown in Ref. \cite{Rod09}, the Fermi part $M_{F}^{0\nu}$ of the total $0\nu\beta\beta$-decay nuclear matrix element $M^{0\nu}$ can be related to the single Fermi transition matrix element between the isobaric analog state (IAS) of the…

We investigate weak nuclear decays with extremely small kinetic energy release (Q value) and thus extremely good sensitivity to the absolute neutrino mass scale. In particular, we consider decays into excited daughter states, and we show…
A correction of the neutrinoless 2\b{eta}-decay model was proposed which predicted a shift of the 2\b{eta}0{\nu}-signal from the Q value (2\b{eta}-decay energy). The shifts were calculated for 76Ge (\D{elta}E=-2.6 keV), 100Mo…
The d(e,e'p) cross section was measured at momentum transfers $Q^2 = $ 0.8, 2.1 and 3.5 $(GeV/c)^2$ covering a wide range of proton kinematics at each $Q^2$ setting that made it possible to study this reaction as a function of missing…
