New shell-model calculations of the correction to superallowed nuclear decay and standard-model implications

L. Xayavong, N. A. Smirnova, F. Nowacki

Refined calculations of the radial mismatch correction, , to superallowed nuclear decay are performed using the shell model with realistic Woods-Sax…

Radial excitations and their potential impact on Fermi -decay rates

L. Xayavong, Y. Lim, N. A. Smirnova +1

We investigate the contribution of radial excitations to Fermi -decay matrix element. To this end, exact no-core shell model calculations are performed for the mirror decay…

Refining the isovector component of the Woods-Saxon potential

L. Xayavong, Y. Lim, N. A. Smirnova +1

We investigate the isovector component in the phenomenological mean field model of nuclei. Lane's isospin dependence, initially proposed for the nuclear optical potential, is reexa…

Understanding the mirror asymmetry in Gamow-Teller transition rates between Al()Si and P()Si

L. Xayavong, N. A. Smirnova, Y. Lim

The long-standing discrepancy between shell-model and experimental values of the mirror asymmetry in Gamow-Teller transition rates for Al()Si and P(…

Constraining theoretical Corrections to Gamow-Teller Transition Rates

L. Xayavong, Y. Lim

We propose two novel constraints for the theoretical corrections to Gamow-Teller transition rates. The first, derived from a two-level model, predicts forbidden regions within the…

Shell-Model Description of the Isospin-Symmetry-Breaking Correction to Gamow-Teller -Decay Rates and Their Mirror Asymmetries

Latsamy Xayavong, Yeunhwan Lim

The isospin-symmetry breaking correction, denoted as , is introduced for the first time within the shell-model framework to the nuclear matrix element of Gamow-Teller transiti…

Improved determination of the oscillator parameters in nuclei

Latsamy Xayavong, Yeunhwan Lim

The oscillator parameter in nuclei is refitted to reproduce the available charge radius data. As an important improvement, we include the Coulomb term evaluated within the assumpti…

Realistic evaluation of Coulomb potential in spherical nuclei and test of the traditional approach

L. Xayavong, Y. Lim

A realistic evaluation of Coulomb potential has been made for some selected nuclei using the available model-independent data for the charge density and the recent development of C…

Higher-order isospin-symmetry breaking corrections to nuclear matrix elements of superallowed Fermi decay of nuclei

Latsamy Xayavong, Nadezda Smirnova

We study the shell-model formalism to include the isospin-symmetry-breaking correction () to nuclear matrix element of superallowed Fermi decays of nu…

Radial overlap correction to superallowed nuclear decays using the shell model with Hartree-Fock radial wave functions

Latsamy Xayavong, Nadezda Smirnova

The radial overlap correction, is re-examined for 30 superallowed decays using the shell model with Hartree-Fock (HF) radial wave functions. Our calculation is based o…

Radial Overlap Correction to Superallowed -decay revisited

Latsamy Xayavong, Nadezda Smirnova

Within the nuclear shell model, we investigate the correction to the Fermi matrix element due to a mismatch between proton and neutron single-particle radial wave function…

Shell-model calculation of isospin-symmetry breaking correction to superallowed Fermi beta-decay

L. Xayavong, N. A. Smirnova, M. Bender +1

We investigate the radial-overlap part of the isospin-symmetry breaking correction to superallowed -decay using the shell-model approach similar to that of Refs. [1, 2]…
