Abstract
A study of the angular correlation in the first-forbidden decay of to the 2125-keV level of was performed. The 2125-keV ground-state transition was detected in coincidence with the betas and at 180° to them. The asymmetry was deduced from the -ray Doppler shift. The result obtained as a function of energy indicates that the transition is dominated by rank 0 matrix elements and is thus of interest as a test of meson-exchange effects in nuclei. A comparison is made to the large-basis, spurious-free, shell-model predictions of Millener.
