Quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling strength in β decays
Abstract
The quenching of the weak axial-vector coupling strength, gA, in nuclear β decays is reviewed. The quenching is discussed for both the Gamow–Teller decays and the forbidden β decays of different variants. Both the historical background and the present status are reviewed and compared with each other. Possible new measurements are urged, whenever relevant for determining the amount of gA quenching.
