Primes

• Half-Life

  • This sourceDevelops the first theory of beta decay as the weak-force induced transformation of a neutron into a proton, electron, and antineutrino; introduces the notion of a weak-interaction Hamiltonian; determines beta-decay rate (and thus half-life) from nuclear matrix elements and the Q-value; foundational for understanding why beta-decay half-lives span an enormous range (seconds to years).
