In nuclear $\beta$-decay calculations, the axial-vector coupling constant $g_A \approx 1.27$ usually needs to be quenched phenomenologically by a factor $q~\approx$ 0.75 to reproduce {the Gamow-Teller (GT) transition strengths}. We propose…
Neutrino nuclear responses associated with medium momentum transfer of q=20-80 MeV for astro neutrinos and double beta decays were studied by using charge exchange reactions on Te128 and Te130. Gamow-Teller and spin dipole nuclear matrix…
A dedicated study of the quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling strength $g_{\rm A}$ in nuclear processes has been performed by the COBRA collaboration. This investigation is driven by nuclear model calculations which show that the…
Detection of the neutrinoless $\beta\beta$ ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay is of high priority in the particle- and neutrino-physics communities. The detectability of this decay mode is strongly influenced by the value of the weak axial-vector…
Recent progress in nuclear-structure theory has been dramatic. I describe recent and future applications of ab initio calculations and the generator coordinate method to double-beta decay. I also briefly discuss the old and vexing problem…
The nucleon axial-vector coupling constant $g_A$ is studied in the presence of an external magnetic field, and in dense nuclear environments, to emulate nuclear matter in magnetars. For this purpose we use QCD finite energy sum rules for…
The existing experimental evidence on the vector and axial-vector coupling constants, $G_V$ and $G_A$, for neutron $\beta$-decay exhibits two prominent problems: (i) the unitarity for the first row of the CKM matrix seems violated; (ii) one…
Measurements of $\beta$-spectral shapes is an important way to examine the effective value of the weak axial coupling $g_{\rm A}$. These stu\ dies focus specifically on forbidden non-unique $\beta^-$ transitions, as only in these cases is…
The longstanding quenching problem of Gamow-Teller (GT) strength in nuclear $\beta$-decay is attributed to missing contributions in the transition operator and/or incomplete nuclear correlations in the many-body wavefunction. Recent studies…
The axial-vector coupling constant in nuclear medium is systematically studied using chiral perturbation theory. For normal nuclear matter, the first non-trivial corrections are estimated based on the independent particle approximation…
A precise measurement of the neutron decay $\beta$-asymmetry $A_0$ has been carried out using polarized ultracold neutrons (UCN) from the pulsed spallation UCN source at the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE). Combining data…
In light and medium-mass nuclei, two-body weak currents from chiral effective field theory account for a significant portion of the phenomenological quenching of Gamow-Teller transition matrix elements. Here we examine the systematic…
We present a precision measurement of the axial-vector coupling constant $g_A$ in the decay of polarized free neutrons. For the first time, a pulsed cold neutron beam was used for this purpose. By this method, leading sources of systematic…
Using appropriate QCD finite energy sum rules, we discuss the influence of an external magnetic field and baryonic density on the axial-vector coupling constant $g_{A}$. This scenario corresponds to a magnetar environment. We found that…
The correlation coefficients a, A, and B in neutron beta-decay are proportional to the ratio of the axial-vector to vector weak coupling constants, g_A/g_V, to leading recoil order. With the advent of the next generation of neutron decay…
The matrix element \Vud of the CKM matrix can be determined by two independent measurements in neutron decay: the neutron lifetime $\tau_n$ and the ratio of coupling constants $\lambda=g_A/g_V$, which is most precisely determined by…
Beta-decay and muon-capture experiments in nuclei are reviewed. The conserved vector current hypothesis is confirmed through the observed constancy of the vector coupling constant determined from the superallowed Fermi transitions and from…
In this article we present an updated spectrum-shape analysis of the $^{113}$Cd fourfold forbidden non-unique $\beta$-decay transition in order to address the quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling $g_{\rm A}$ in low-momentum exchange…
Precision measurements in nuclear beta decay offer a sensitive window to search for new physics beyond the standard electroweak model and allow also the determination of the fundamental weak vector coupling in processes involving the…
Study of the neutrinoless double beta decay, $0\nu\beta\beta$, includes a variety of problems of nuclear structure theory. They are reviewed here. The problems range from the mechanism of the decay, i.e. exchange of the light Majorana…
