Abstract
- A new precision half-life measurement of $^{25}\mathrm{Al}$ was conducted using the TwinSol $\ensuremath{\beta}$-counting station at the University of Notre Dame. The new measured value of ${t}_{1/2}^{\mathrm{new}}=7.1657(24)$ s is in good agreement with the most recent measurement, while being 3 times more precise. Using these new measurements, an evaluation of the $^{25}\mathrm{Al}$ half-life has been performed, leading to an average half-life of ${t}_{1/2}^{\mathrm{world}}=7.1665(26)$ s, which is 5 times more precise than it's predecessor and has a more satisfactory Birge ratio of 1.1. To aid in future measurements of correlation parameters, a new Fermi to Gamow-Teller mixing ratio $\ensuremath{\rho}$ and correlation parameters for this mixed transition have been calculated assuming the standard model validity using the new world half-life.
