Tensor interaction constraints from beta decay recoil spin asymmetry of trapped atoms

J. R. A. Pitcairn, D. Roberge, A. Gorelov +14

We have measured the angular distribution of recoiling daughter nuclei emitted from the Gamow-Teller $\beta$ decay of spin-polarized ${}^{80}$Rb. The asymmetry of this distribution vanis…
