description

Nuclides with a large neutron excess have high Q β values, making it possible to extract the β-strength function (SF) over a large energy range using β-decay spectroscopy. However, because of the low neutron binding energies, neutron emission from excited states will occur and β-delayed neutron spectroscopy is required to determine the SF over the full Q β window.
