edit main article beta decay transition when l 0 the decay is referred to as forbidden nuclear selection rules require high l values to be accompanied by changes in nuclear spin j and parity π the selection rules for the l th forbidden transitions are δ j l 1 l l 1 δ π 1 l displaystyle delta j l 1 l l 1 delta pi 1 l where δ π 1 or 1 corresponds to no parity change or parity change respectively the special case of a transition between isobaric analogue states where the structure of the final state is very similar to the structure of the initial state is referred to as superallowed for beta decay and proceeds very quickly the following table lists the δ j and δ π values for the first few values of l forbiddenness δ j δ π superallowed 0 no allowed 0 1 no first forbidden 0 1 2 yes second forbidden 1 2 3 no third forbidden 2 3 4 yes bound state β decay edit a very small minority of free neutron decays about four per million are two body decays the proton electron and antineutrino are produced but the electron fails to gain the 13 6 ev energy necessary to escape the proton and therefore simply remains bound to it as a neutral hydrogen atom 49 in this type of beta decay in essence all of the neutron decay energy is carried off by the antineutrino for fully ionized atoms bare nuclei it is possible in likewise manner for electrons to fail to escape the atom and to be emitted from the nucleus into low lying atomic bound states orbitals this can in theory occur for neutral atoms as a new bound state is always opened by the decay but rarely is appreciable bound state β decays were predicted by daudel jean and lecoin in 1947 50 and the phenomenon in fully ionized atoms was first observed for 163 dy 66 in 1992 by jung et al of the darmstadt heavy ion research center though neutral 163 dy is stable fully ionized 163 dy 66 undergoes β decay into the k and l shells with a half life of 47 days 51 the resulting nucleus 163 ho 66 is stable only in this almost fully ionized state and will decay via electron capture back into 163 dy in the neutral state likewise while being stable in the neutral state the fully ionized 205 tl 81 undergoes bound state β decay to 205 pb 81 with a half life of 291 33 27 days 52 53 the half lives of neutral 163 ho and 205 pb are respectively 4570 years and 1 70 10 7 years the q value of bound state beta decay of a highly ionized atom q β

theoretically β unstable but their q β c displaystyle q_ beta _ c value are very low so that fully ionizing greatly accelerates β decay since the q β b displaystyle q_ beta _ b value is much higher neutral 187 re does undergo β decay with half life 4 12 10 10 years 59 but bosch et al also at darmstadt observed that for fully ionized 187 re 75 this is shortened to only 32 9 years 60 the increase in q value of beta decay typically means that additional decay paths to some excited states of the daughter nucleus become energetically allowed 54 this is exactly what happens in the case of 187 re in addition to the large increase in decay energy 187 re 75 is energetically allowed to undergo β decay to the first excited state in 187 os 75 a process energetically disallowed for natural 187 re n 3 similarly neutral 241 pu undergoes β decay with a half life of 14 3 years but in its fully ionized state the beta decay half life of 241 pu 94 decreases to 4 2 days 61 for comparison the variation

nucleus changes by two units double beta decay is difficult to study as it has an extremely long half life in nuclei for which both β decay and 2β are possible the rarer 2β process is effectively impossible to observe however in nuclei where β decay is forbidden but 2β is allowed the process can be seen and a half life measured 62 thus 2β is usually studied only for beta stable nuclei like single beta decay double beta decay does not change a thus at least one of the nuclides with some given a has to be stable with regard to both single and double beta decay ordinary 2β results in the emission of two electrons and two antineutrinos if neutrinos are majorana particles i e they are their own antiparticles then a decay known as neutrinoless double beta decay will occur most neutrino physicists believe that neutrinoless 2β has never been observed 62 see also edit common beta emitters neutrino betavoltaics particle radiation radionuclide tritium illumination a form of fluorescent

that β will be greatly accelerated for fully ionized 222 rn 86 57 see the next subsection bound state beta decays for 148 eu and 244 pu involve fifth forbidden transitions so they should be negligible 54 note also that the decay of bare 187 re is dominated by the nonunique transition to the first excited state of 187 os since the decay to the ground state has a much smaller matrix element 60 a
