Search for a super-allowed β-decay of H4

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik

Abstract

If aβ-decaying H4 exists a super-allowed transition to the excited analogue state of He4 is possible. Such a decay mode was not considered in previous experiments. The reaction Li6 (γ, 2p) H4 was used to produce H4. No super-allowedβ -decay of H4 could be observed and upper limits for the production cross section are given.
