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(…
