<p class="x_x_MsoNormal"><b>The beta decay puzzle – Jason Holt</b></p>
<p class="x_x_MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="x_x_MsoNormal">â-decay, the familiar process that changes a neutron into a proton (and vice versa), is the dominant decay mode of atomic nuclei and offers a unique window to physics beyond the standard model. But it turns out that for over 50 years,
there has been a persistent mystery: observed â-decay rates are always systematically smaller than theoretical predictions. The origin of this “quenching” is unknown and explanations are often controversial, some even claiming to modify the fundamental coupling
constant gA in the nucleus. I will discuss this puzzle and a newly proposed first-principles solution that appears to be consistent with experiment up to mass A=100.</p>
