- In a Fermi transition, the angular momentum of the parent nucleus and the daughter nucleus will be the same.
- In a Gamow-Teller transition, the angular momentum of the parent nucleus and the daughter nucleus may be the same, or may change by unity.
- If the angular momentum of the parent and daughter is 0, the transition is pore fermi, and if the angular momentum change is 1, it is pure Gamow-Teller transition. For any other case, that satisfies the above conditions, the transition is mixed
- For the first forbidden decay, the change in angular momentum can be 0,1 or 2. This is characterized by a change in parity.
- In the second forbidden decay the change in angular momentum can be 2 or 3, and there is no parity change.
- In the third forbidden decay the change in angular momentum can be 3 or 4, and there is parity change.
- In the fourth forbidden decay the change in angular momentum can be 4 or 5, and there is no parity change.
- With these, the following transitions are
- a) Here, \Delta l =0 and parity does not change. The angular momentum of parent is not equal to zero. So, this is a Mixed Fermi and Gamow-Teller decay
- b) Here, \Delta l =0 and parity does not change. The angular momentum of parent is equal to zero. So, this is a Pure Fermi decay
- c) Here, \Delta l =0 and parity does not change. The angular momentum of parent is not equal to zero. So, this is a Mixed Fermi and Gamow-Teller decay
- d) Here, \Delta l = 2 and parity does not change. So, this is a Second forbidden decay
- e) Here, \Delta l = 3 and parity changes. So, this is a Third forbidden decay
- f) Here, \Delta l = 1 and parity changes. So, this is a First forbidden decay
- g) Here, \Delta l = 4 and parity does not change. So, this is a Fourth forbidden decay
