Wave function ofN14

The β- and γ-decay rates, electron scattering form factors, and intermediate energy (p,p’) and (p,n) cross-section data are used to compare a set of wave functions that have been proposed for ${}_{}{}^{14}{}_{}{}^{}\mathrm{N}$. With pertinent reaction t matrices and allowance for reasonable and often small core polarization corrections the wave functions derived by standard (shell-model) calculations are found to be the most relevant.
