Search for manifest left-right symmetry with beta-ray polarimetry

Description

Manifest left-right symmetric electroweak theories interpret parity violation in nuclear β decay as a low-energy phenomenon by suppressing right-handed V+A currents below the mass of a hypothetical right-handed boson. We constrained the possible occurrence of V+A currents by earlier absolute measurements using Gamow-Teller and mixed 3H transitions, and by recent comparative measurements using pure Fermi and Gamow-Teller transitions. The instruments were based on Mott and Bhabha scattering
