Precision Measurements to Test the Standard Model and for Explosive Nuclear Astrophysics

Precision Measurements to Test the Standard Model and for Explosive Nuclear Astrophysics by Adrian A. Valverde.

This thesis presents two significant results in the field of precision measurements in low-energy nuclear physics. Firstly, it presents a precise half-life determination of 11C, leading to the most precise ft-value for a beta decay transition between mirror nuclides, an important advance in the test...
