The superallowed beta-decay rates that provide stringent constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics are affected by nuclear structure effects through isospin-breaking corrections. The self-consistent isospin- and…
Recently, we have applied for the first time the angular momentum and isospin projected nuclear density functional theory to calculate the isospin-symmetry breaking (ISB) corrections to the superallowed beta-decay. With the calculated set…
We perform an ab initio quantum Monte Carlo calculation of the isospin-symmetry-breaking correction $\delta_C$ to the superallowed $\beta$ decay of $^{10}{\rm C}$. Using both phenomenological and chiral nuclear interactions, we evaluate the…
After application of an analytical transformation, a new exact representation for the nuclear isospin-symmetry breaking correction $\delta_C$ to superallowed beta decay is obtained. The correction is shown to be essentially the reciprocal…
In this work we present the first steps towards benchmarking isospin symmetry breaking in ab initio nuclear theory for calculations of superallowed Fermi $\beta$-decay. Using the valence-space in-medium similarity renormalization group, we…
Precision beta decay experiments serve as powerful probes of physics beyond the Standard Model, enabling stringent tests of fundamental symmetries of nature. In particular, these experiments primarily focus on precise determinations of the…
We lay out a novel formalism to connect the isospin-symmetry breaking correction to the rates of superallowed nuclear beta decays, $\delta_\text{C}$, to the isospin-breaking sensitive combinations of electroweak nuclear radii that can be…
The isospin-symmetry breaking correction, denoted as $\delta_C$, is introduced for the first time within the shell-model framework to the nuclear matrix element of Gamow-Teller transitions. $\delta_C$ is separated into two components: the…
We study the shell-model formalism to include the isospin-symmetry-breaking correction ($\delta_{C}$) to nuclear matrix element of superallowed $0^+\to 0^+$ Fermi $\beta$ decays of $T=1$ nuclei. Based on a perturbation expansion in a small…
We present a test with which to evaluate the calculated isospin-symmetry-breaking corrections to superallowed 0+-to-0+ nuclear beta decay. The test is based on the corrected experimental Ft values being required to satisfy conservation of…
Background: The superallowed beta-decay rates provide stringent constraints on physics beyond the Standard Model of particle physics. To extract crucial information about the electroweak force, small isospin-breaking corrections to the…
We analyze the axial $\gamma W$-box diagram for $I(J^P)=1(0^+)$ nuclei and provide a dispersion representation of the nuclear-structure correction $\delta_\text{NS}$ including its energy-dependent part. We also summarize useful isospin…
We present results of systematic calculations of the isospin-symmetry-breaking corrections to the superallowed I=$0+,T=1 --> I=0+,T=1 beta-decays, based on the self-consistent isospin- and angular-momentum-projected nuclear density…
We report new shell-model calculations of the isospin-symmetry-breaking correction to superallowed nuclear beta decay. The most important improvement is the inclusion of core orbitals, which are demonstrated to have a significant impact on…
We propose a new approach to determine the strength of the charge symmetry breaking (CSB) term in the framework of nuclear density functional theory. It is shown that once ab initio calculations are available including accurate description…
The results of systematic calculations of isospin-symmetry-breaking corrections to superallowed beta-decays based on the self-consistent isospin- and angular-momentum-projected nuclear density functional theory (DFT) are reviewed with an…
Corrections to the superallowed beta decay matrix elements are evaluated in perturbation theory using the notion of the isovector monopole resonance. The calculation avoids the separation into different contributions and thus presents a…
Nuclear super-allowed $\beta$ decay has been used to obtain tight limits on the value of the CKM matrix element $V_{ud}$ that is important for unitarity tests, and therefore important for tests of the standard model. Current requirements on…
Effects of the delta-isobar $(\Delta)$ mixing on the spin-isospin response functions in finite nuclei are studied in the quasi-elastic region. A method to calculate the response function for a finite system composed of nucleon $(N)$ and…
In the study of $\alpha$ decay within the superheavy nuclear region ($Z \geq 90$ and $N \geq 140$), the $\alpha$-particle preformation probability $P_{\alpha}$ serves as a crucial physical quantity linking nuclear structure to decay…
