If parity were conserved, and hence+= 0 were the true value, we would have E p XQ,, on the
average. The odds against a statistical Quctuation as large or larger than that which would …

INTRODUCTION"'N the last few years study ofthe laws of P decay has-. been the object of
many experimental and theoretical investigations. As a consequence, the form of the nuclear …

Beta Decay, by CS Wu and SA Moszkowski, is an excellent book, a refreshing book, highly
recommended. Until it was written, a comprehensive knowledge of beta decay could be …

The β-decay asymmetry of the free neutron is measured by use of a beam of polarized
neutrons and a long solenoidal β spectrometer with 4 π solid angle for electron detection …

The influence of the known weak interactions on the parity impurity of nuclear states is
discussed. Derivation of a parity nonconserving interaction rests on the assumption of a …

The measure of the asymmetry fS as a function of y gives t'a and tP. The magnitude of the
parameter f, which isthe degree of polarization of the p meson, depends on the …

A quantitative estimate is made of the branching ratio between two-body and more
complicated mesonic decay modes for He 4 Λ and H 4 Λ, as function of their spin J and the …

KK and Yang'recently proposed that parity may~ & not be conserved in weak interactions
and sug-gested various experiments to verify their hypothesis. Two of the experiments have …
