a) Obtained by adopting 0.61 ± 0.01 % (1966SI05) and 0.062 ± 0.007 % (1969KA1B) for the branching ratio to 14N*(0, 3.95) [both 1+; 0 states]. Sum of εK and β-decay in ratio 6/4 (R.W. Kavanagh, private communication to Fay Ajzenberg-Selove, (1981AJ01)

b) 1890.1 ± 1.5 keV is obtained from measurements of the threshold energy of the 14N(p, n)14O reaction and the energy of 14N*(2.31). This value leads to a 0.8% decrease in the ft value of (1962BA26) (1968FR08).

c) Obtained by adopting 0.61 ± 0.01 % (1966SI05) and 0.058 ± 0.004 % (1980WI1H) for the branching ratio to 14N*(0, 3.95) [both 1+; 0 states].

e) Using τ(partial) = [71.36 ± 0.009] sec; includes form-factor and screening corrections. Radiative corrections of (1959KI1C) increase ft to 3126 sec: see also (1966BA1A, 1966FR15, 1967SU1E).

f) This is the fRt value.
