Krane: 'Introductory Nuclear Physics'

The original work is from Fermi 1934. I attach the paper.

In the meantime I found an englisch translation of the Fermi paper.

Check this book " The Experimental Foundations of particle Physics Second Edition by Robert Can and Gerson  Goldhaber" pg 147 you will find related material

 Essay on beta decay and theories are attached
