In this review we study the level of accuracy of the electronic wave functions which is necessary to describe properly the atomic effects during nuclear beta-decay. In the case of the beta- decay in the Li atom into Be+ ion we compare the…
Method: To examine signatures of this alpha-condensation, a compound nucleus reaction using 160, 280, and 400 MeV 16O beams impinging on a carbon target was used to investigate the 12C(16O,7a) reaction. This permits a search for…
