Orbital electron capture by the nucleus

Bambynek, W., Behrens, H., Chen, M. H., Crasemann, B., Fitzpatrick, M. L., Ledingham, K. W. D., Genz, H., Mutterer, M., Intemann, R. L.·1977·Reviews of Modern Physics

Abstract

The theory of nuclear electron capture is reviewed in the light of current understanding of weak interactions. Experimental methods and results regarding capture probabilities, capture ratios, and $\frac{\mathrm{EC}}{{\ensuremath{\beta}}^{+}}$ ratios are summarized. Radiative electron capture is discussed, including both theory and experiment. Atomic wavefunction overlap and electron exchange effects are covered, as are atomic transitions that accompany nuclear electron capture. Tables are provided to assist the reader in determining quantities of interest for specific cases.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
