Description

In the present paper we introduce a simple model to describe the process of beta delayed nucleon emission. A standard shell model calculation can be used to describe the beta decay of the precursor and the single particle structure of the particle unbound levels of the emitter nucleus. The single particle width for nucleon emission is then obtained from the Gamow wave functions of a suitable single particle potential. We compare our theoretical predictions with recent experimental data on beta delayed protons produced in the beta decay of 31Ar. (author)
