Abstract
The half-life of V has been measured to be 422.66(6) ms, which is a factor of two more precise than the best previous measurement. Our result is also consistent with the previous measurements, with no repeat of the disagreement recently encountered with values measured for the same transition. The value for the V superallowed transition, incorporating all world data, is determined to be 3074.1(26) s, a result consistent with the average value of 3072.08(79) s established from the 13 best-known superallowed transitions.
