[abridged] Bound states of heavy quarks can serve as a laboratory for inquiry into the behaviour of the fundamental strong and electroweak interactions. This thesis examines observations of B0, B0bar, and B+- mesons produced in…
The unexpectedly strong 21cm absorption signal detected by the EDGES experiment suggests that the baryonic gas was colder at redshift $z\sim 17$ than predicted in the standard scenario. We discuss a mechanism to lower the baryon temperature…
Knowledge of the beam energy at LEP2 is of primary importance to set the absolute energy scale for the measurement of the W-boson mass. The beam energy above 80 GeV is derived from continuous measurements of the magnetic bending field by 16…
A complete calculation of phase space factors (PSF) for Majoron emitting $0\nu\beta^-\beta^-$ decay modes is presented. The calculation makes use of exact Dirac wave functions with finite nuclear size and electron screening and includes…
Radioactivity is understood to be described by a Poisson process, yet some measurements of nuclear decays appear to exhibit unexpected variations. Generally, the isotopes reporting these variations have long half lives, which are plagued by…
Investigation of the $^{50}$V electron-capture to the $2^+$ 1553.8 keV level of $^{50}$Ti and search for $\beta^-$ decay of $^{50}$V to the $2^+$ 783.3 keV level of $^{50}$Cr (both those decays are fourfold forbidden with $\Delta J^{\Delta…

In this study, we have reported key nuclear properties of weak $\beta$-decay processes on Yttrium isotopes for the mass number range $A = 101 - 108$. This mass region is important in astrophysical $r$-process abundances. Our study might be…

The half-life of the odd-odd deformed proton emitter $^{148}$Lu is predicted to be $196_{-129}^{+420}$ ns via the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin (WKB) approximation, in which the potential is extracted from the triaxial relativistic…
The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR searched for neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) of $^{76}$Ge using modular arrays of high-purity Ge detectors operated in vacuum cryostats in a low-background shield. The arrays operated with up…
We present limits on Majoron-emitting neutrinoless double-beta decay modes based on an exposure of 112.3 days with 125 kg of Xe-136. In particular, a lower limit on the ordinary (spectral index n = 1) Majoron-emitting decay half-life of…
This article proposes a new method to measure the proton detector efficiency for use in "beam" determinations of the free neutron lifetime. There is currently a 4{\sigma} disagreement between the "beam" and "storage" methods of measuring…
In the present work, we study {\alpha} decay and proton emission half-lives within the modified Gamow-like model, which introduces the effects of the nucleus's deformation. The calculations show that it is necessary to consider the…
The isotopes of manganese in the mass range A equal to 53 to 63 are abundant in the core material of high mass stars and are believed to be of prime importance in the progression of the pre collapse phases. During these late evolutionary…
