Mirror beta transitions
arXiv:2211.01864
Abstract
Beta decays of mirror nuclei differ in Q-value, but will otherwise proceed with transitions of similar strength. The current status is reviewed: Fermi transitions are all very similar, whereas Gamow-Teller transitions can differ in strength by more than a factor two. The main cause of the asymmetries appears to be binding energy differences between the mirror systems.
