Description
Theoretical investigation of as-yet-unobserved radiative neutron decay is performed. Experimental searches for this decay allow one to test directly part of radiative corrections whose contribution is presently estimated at 1.5% of the total probability of neutron beta decay. Descriptions of the neutron radiative decay and nuclear radiative beta decay are compared. The results of the theoretical evaluations of the radiative corrections given in the literature are discussed
