Abstract
We analyze the experimental beta-shape factor of In114 (1+0+) as reported to be represented by (1+bW). We find a reasonable fit to the experimental shape factor of the Langer group by considering the contribution of the second-order effects within the framework of the VA theory. The less anomalous beta-shape factor due to Daniel and Panussi can also be explained. The effects arising from a consideration of the finite nuclear size and the finite de Broglie wavelength were included in our calculations.
