The current status of Vud
I. S. Towner, J. C. Hardy
The value of the matrix element of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix can be derived from nuclear superallowed beta decays, neutron decay, and pion beta decay. We…
Degree to which CVC is Established Through Beta Decay Alone
E. Hagberg, J. C. Hardy, V. T. Koslowsky +2
Precision studies of superallowed decays provide the necessary data to test stringently the CVC hypothesis. They will also provide a value for the wea…
Superallowed Fermi Beta Decay -- a Status Report
I. S. Towner, E. Hagberg, J. C. Hardy +2
Data on superallowed Fermi beta decay in nuclei are compiled and electromagnetic corrections discussed. Recommended values for the weak vector coupling constant and the leading ele…
Recent Chalk River Experiments on Superallowed Beta Decays
I. S. Towner, E. Hagberg, G. Savard +4
Two experiments, (1) a measurement of the superallowed branching ratio in C, and (2) a measurement of (or limit on) non-analogue $0^{+} \rightarrow…
