TL;DR
This paper reviews mirror beta decays, highlighting that while Fermi transitions are consistent, Gamow-Teller transitions show significant asymmetries mainly due to binding energy differences.
Contribution
It provides a comprehensive review of mirror beta decay transitions, emphasizing the causes of asymmetries between mirror nuclei.
Findings
Fermi transitions are very similar across mirror nuclei.
Gamow-Teller transitions can differ by more than a factor of two.
Binding energy differences are a primary cause of asymmetries.
Abstract
Beta decays of mirror nuclei differ in Q-value, but will otherwise proceed with transitions of similar strength. The current status is reviewed: Fermi transitions are all very similar, whereas Gamow-Teller transitions can differ in strength by more than a factor two. The main cause of the asymmetries appears to be binding energy differences between the mirror systems.
