Abstract
Using Triumf’s neutral atom trap, Trinat, for nuclear decay, we have measured the asymmetry with respect to the initial nuclear spin in to be , a 0.3% measurement. This is the best relative accuracy of any -asymmetry measurement in a nucleus or the neutron, and is in agreement with the standard model prediction . We compare constraints on physics beyond the standard model with other -decay measurements, and improve the value of measured in this mirror nucleus by a factor of 4.
