The inverse $\beta$-decay reaction, $ \bar{\nu}_e p \to e^+ n$, for low-energy anti-neutrinos coming from nuclear reactors is of great current interest in connection with high-precision measurements of the neutrino mixing angle…
The inverse $\beta$-decay reaction, anti-nu_e + p --> e^+ + n, for low-energy anti-neutrinos coming from nuclear reactors is of great current interest in connection with high-precision measurements of the neutrino mixing angle…
Inverse beta decay (IBD), $\overline{\nu}_e p \to e^+ n \left( \gamma \right)$, is the main detection channel for reactor antineutrinos in water- and hydrocarbon-based detectors. As reactor antineutrino experiments now target…
For the low-energy anti-neutrino reaction, $\bar{\nu}_e + p \to e^+ + n$, which is of great current interest in connection with on-going high-precision neutrino-oscillation experiments, we calculate the differential cross section in a…
We study radiative corrections to neutron beta decay and low-energy (anti)neutrino-nucleon scattering within a top-down effective field theory approach. As it was recently shown, a few electromagnetic and electroweak low-energy coupling…
We compute the electromagnetic corrections to neutron beta decay using a low-energy hadronic effective field theory. We identify and compute new radiative corrections arising from virtual pions that were missed in previous studies. The…
In this paper we study the effect of, well-known, higher order corrections to the allowed beta decay spectrum on the determination of anti-neutrino spectra resulting from the decays of fission fragments. In particular, we try to estimate…
We consider radiative \beta--decay of the neutron in heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory, with an extension including explicit \Delta degrees of freedom. We compute the photon energy spectrum as well as the photon polarization; both…
Inverse muon decay ($\nu_\mu e^- \to \nu_e \mu^-$) is a promising tool to constrain neutrino fluxes with energies $E_{\nu} \ge 10.9~\mathrm{GeV}$. Radiative corrections introduce percent-level distortions to energy spectra of outgoing muons…
Recent measurements of the positron energy spectrum obtained from inverse beta decay interactions of reactor electron antineutrinos show an excess in the 4 to 6 MeV region relative to current predictions. First-principle calculations of…
We derive an analytic expression for the O(alpha) radiative correction to the anti-nu_e (nu_e) spectrum in allowed beta-decay. The m -> 0 limit is convergent and leads to a very simple result (m is the electron mass). This is in sharp…
Radiative corrections to the lifetime and angular correlation coefficients of neutron beta-decay are evaluated in effecitive field theory. We also evaluate the lowest order nucleon recoil corrections, including weak-magnetism. Our results…
The shape of the electron energy spectrum in 3H beta-decay permits a direct assay of the absolute scale of the neutrino mass; a highly accurate theoretical description of the electron energy spectrum is necessary to the empirical task. We…
We analyze the cross section for inverse beta decay, focusing on the moderate energies (a few MeV to hundreds of MeV) relevant for reactor and supernova neutrinos. We discuss the updated evaluations of values and uncertainties in the cross…
We use heavy-nucleus effective field theory to compute radiative corrections to two-neutrino double-$\beta$ decay ($2\nu\beta\beta$). Our main result is the first derivation of a universal radiative-correction factor for double-weak decays…
We investigate the impact of radiative and atomic exchange corrections in the two-neutrino double-beta ($2\nu\beta\beta$)-decay of $^{100}$Mo. In the calculation of the exchange correction, the electron wave functions are obtained from a…
Radiative corrections are calculated for antineutrino proton quasielastic scattering, neutrino deuteron scattering, and the asymmetry of polarised neutron beta decay from which $G_{A}/G_{V}$ is determined. A particular emphasis is given to…
Pionic beta decay \pi^+ to \pi^0 e^+ \nu_e is analyzed in chiral perturbation theory with virtual photons and leptons. All electromagnetic corrections up to order e^2 p^2 are taken into account. Theoretical results are confronted with…
Precision measurements of $\beta$-decay observables offer the possibility to search for deviations from the Standard Model. A possible discovery of such deviations requires accompanying first-principles calculations. Here we compute the…
Inverse beta decay (IBD), $\overline{\nu}_e p \to e^+ n \left( \gamma \right)$, is the main detection channel for reactor and supernova antineutrinos. To provide precise IBD cross sections at antineutrino energies $E_{\overline{\nu}_e}…
