This paper investigates the beta decay of nuclei within the sd model space, encompassing the $0d_{3/2}$, $0d_{5/2}$, and $1s_{1/2}$ shells. We comprehensively analyze their decay characteristics, including the half-life, $logft$ value, Q…
We investigate neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay within an extended Standard Model framework based on the $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes SU(3)_R \otimes U(1)_X$ gauge symmetry, commonly referred to as the filliped…
