Abstract
The recoil corrections to the shape of the Fermi distribution for the β-spectrum are calculated, and it is concluded that they are of the same order of magnitude as other effects, which are usually neglected. Furthermore it is shown that the observed half-life and shape of the β-spectrum of the neutron excludes any coupling in β-decay depending on nuclear v./c. terms only.
