Large difference between two methods of calculating the integrated fermi function in superallowed β-decays

The integrated statistical rates for superallowed 0+-0+ β-transitions evaluated according to the most widely used methods proposed by Behrens-Jänecke-Bühring and Towner-Hardy are compared. It is shown that both calculations are in essential agreement up to mass A=38. However, for heavier nuclei ther...

The disagreement, which increases with increasing Z, ranges from 0.07% for 42Sc to as much as 0.13% for 54Co and is larger than the errors attached to f-values due to uncertainties in W0 (these being about 0.03-0.04%).
