The electron neutrino mass has been measured in several tritium beta decay experiments. These experiments are sensitive to a small neutrino mass because the energy release of the decay is small. But the very smallness of the energy release…

We calculate the nuclear matrix elements of the neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decays of $^{76}$Ge and $^{82}$Se for the light-neutrino exchange mechanism. The nuclear wave functions are obtained by using realistic two-body…

Measurements of nuclear $\beta$-decay are commonly used to extract elements of the quark-mixing Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix. The precision of these measurements is currently limited by theoretical uncertainties in electroweak…

We propose formulas of the nuclear beta-decay rate that are useful in a practical calculation. The decay rate is determined by the product of the lepton and hadron current densities. A widely used formula relies upon the fact that the…

Exchange interaction strongly influences the long-range behaviour of localised electron orbitals. It violates the oscillation theorem (creates extra nodes) and produces a power-law decay instead of the usual exponential decrease at large…

We study the important for the experiment features of the effect of the electron shell on alpha decay in the adiabatic approach. The effect is of tenths of a percent or less in magnitude, depending on the transition energy and the atomic…

We calculate the $\beta$ spectrum in the decay of $^6$He using Quantum Monte Carlo methods with nuclear interactions derived from chiral Effective Field Theory and consistent weak vector and axial currents. We work at second order in the…

Measurements of elastic electron scattering data within the past decade have highlighted two-photon exchange contributions as a necessary ingredient in theoretical calculations to precisely evaluate hydrogen elastic scattering cross…

In this paper, the in-medium $NN\rightarrow N\Delta$ cross section is calculated in the framework of the one-boson exchange model by including the isovector mesons, i.e. $\delta$ and $\rho$ mesons. Due to the isospin exchange in the…
