摘要
A high-precision half-lifemeasurement for the superallowed beta(+) transition between the isospin T = 1/2 mirror nuclei Na-21 and Ne-21 has been performed at the TRIUMF-ISAC radioactive ion beam facility yielding T-1/2 = 22.4506(33) s, a result that is a factor of 4 more precise than the previous world-average half-life for Na-21 and represents the single most precisely determined half-life for a transition between mirror nuclei to date. The contribution to the uncertainty in the Na-21 Ft(mirror) value due to the half-life is now reduced to the level of the nuclear-structure- dependent theoretical corrections, leaving the branching ratio as the dominant experimental uncertainty.
