Abstract:
Trapped radioactive atoms and ions
have become a standard tool of the
trade for precision studies of beyond
SM physics. Beta decay studies, in
particular, offer the possibility of
detecting deviations from standard
model predictions of the weak
interaction which signal new physics.
These 'precision frontier' searches are
complementary to the high energy
searches performed by the LHC and
other high energy/high luminosity
facilities. I will present a general
overview of the topic, focusing on
future plans making use of SARAF
and it's unique capabilities.
