The goal of this work is to obtain a more precise theoretical prediction of the half live of the 23Ne to 23Na β decay. After calculating the wavefunctions corresponding to 23Ne and 23Na using the shell model code Nathan, I evaluate the nuclear matrix element of a subleading β decay operator for the first time. This correction reduces the half lives of the decay branches studied up to 3%5 p.application/pdfengcc-by-nc-nd (c) Carrera, 2021http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/es/Desintegració betaFísica nuclearTreballs de fi de grauBeta decayNuclear physicsBachelor's thesesEvaluation of subleading β decay matrix elements in light nucleiinfo:eu-repo/semantics/bachelorThesisinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
