Description

The angular distribution of positrons emitted in the decay of polarized 19Ne has been measured as a test for the second-class weak interaction. The β asymmetry parameter varies linearly with the β energy with slope (dA/dE)/sub exp/= (-0.65plus-or-minus0.15) % MeV-1. This result requires a second-class form factor comparable to the weak-magnetism term
