The Angular Correlations in the Decay of Excited States in 8Be
A. C Hayes, J. L. Friar, GM. Hale +1
Motivated by the recent observation of anomalous electron-positron angular correlations in the decay of the 18.15 MeV 1+ excited states in 8Be, we reexamine in detail the Standard…
Effect of Siegert's Theorem on Low-Energy Neutrino-Nucleus Interactions
A. C. Hayes, J. L. Friar
We examine the importance of conserving the vector current in calculating low-energy neutrino-nucleus interactions by implicitly invoking Siegert's Theorem in describing the vector…
Nuclear Zemach Moments and Finite-Size Corrections to Allowed Beta Decay
X. B. Wang, J. L. Friar, A. C. Hayes
The finite-size correction to -decay plays an important role in determining the expected antineutrino spectra from reactors at a level that is important for the reactor-neutrino…
Ubiquity of Benfords law and emergence of the reciprocal distribution
J. L. Friar, T. Goldman, J. Perez-Mercader
We apply the Law of Total Probability to the construction of scale-invariant probability distribution functions (pdfs), and require that probability measures be dimensionless and u…
The Possible Origin and Implications of the Shoulder in Reactor Neutrino Spectra
A. C. Hayes, J. L. Friar, G. T. Garvey +4
We analyze within a nuclear database framework the shoulder observed in the antineutrino spectra in current reactor experiments. We find that the ENDF/B-VII.1 database predicts tha…
Systematic Uncertainties in the Analysis of the Reactor Neutrino Anomaly
A. C. Hayes, J. L. Friar, G. T. Garvey +2
We examine uncertainties in the analysis of the reactor neutrino anomaly, wherein it is suggested that only about 94% of the emitted antineutrino flux was detected in short baselin…
