This measurement can also be made in reverse by observing an electron being captured by the artificial isotope holmium-163, transforming it into dysprosium-163 and releasing a neutrino.

"The complementary path is the electron capture of the artificial isotope holmium-163," continues Schweiger. Here, the atomic nucleus captures an electron from the inner electron shell, whereby a ...
