Abstract
The measured Gamow-Teller strength in decay, which has an unusually high energy release, differs significantly from shell-model predictions and also from the analogous strength inferred from the (p,n) reaction. This calls into question the claim, based primarily on shell-model analyses of low-energy-release β-decay rates and (p,n) cross sections, that is significantly renormalized in complex nuclei.
