“…A second advantage of the low temperature nuclear orientation technique is that it allows precise and accurate anisotropy information to be deduced by using appropriate source preparation and detection techniques. As an illustration, it has been shown that for ß-asymmetries in most cases a higher signal to background ratio is obtained than with β-γ circular polarization correlation experiments [10][11], This has been indicated by the NO results of the Fermi to Gamow-Teller ratios in ß-decay [11][12].…”

“…The background-field method [13][14][15][16][17] is ideally suited to the computation of effective interaction in curved spaces. It has been used to study the renormalization property of gauge theories in curved Riemannian spacetime by various authors [27,[29][30][31], establishing renormalizability at one-loop level and beyond. In the case of Riemann-Cartan spacetime, there does not seem to exist investigations in the literature of the renormalizability question of gauge theories.…”

The potential conflict between torsion and gauge symmetry in the Riemann-Cartan curved spacetime was noted by Kibble in his 1961 pioneering paper, and has since been discussed by many authors. Kibble suggested that, to preserve gauge symmetry, one should forgo the covariant derivative in favor of the ordinary derivative in the definition of the field strength Fµν for massless gauge theories, while for massive vector fields covariant derivatives should be adopted. This view was further emphasized by Hehl and collaborators in their influential 1976 review paper. We address the question of whether this deviation from normal procedure by forgoing covariant derivatives in curved spacetime with torsion could give rise to inconsistencies in the theory, such as the quantum renormalizability of a realistic interacting theory. We demonstrate in this note the one-loop renormalizability of a realistic gauge theory of gauge bosons interacting with Dirac spinors, such as the SU(3) chromodynamics, for the case of a curved Riemann-Cartan spacetime with totally antisymmetric torsion. This affirmative confirmation is one step towards providing justification for the assertion that the flat-space definition of the gauge field strength should be adopted as the proper definition.
