## Transition Types
|
||||
|
||||
The `transition_type` parameter in `SpectrumConfig` determines the **forbidden factor** applied to the phase space calculation. This encodes the angular momentum and parity selection rules for the nuclear transition:
|
||||
|
||||
| Type | Name | Forbidden Order | $\Delta J^\pi$ | Forbidden Factor |
|
||||
|------|------|-----------------|----------------|------------------|
|
||||
| `A` | Allowed | 0 | $0^+, 1^+$ | $1$ |
|
||||
| `F1` | First forbidden (non-unique) | 1 | $0^-, 1^-, 2^\pm$ | $p_\nu^2 + p_e^2$ |
|
||||
| `F1U` | First forbidden (unique) | 1 | $2^-$ | $p_\nu^2 + p_e^2$ |
|
||||
| `F2` | Second forbidden (non-unique) | 2 | $1^\pm, 2^+, 3^\pm$ | $p_\nu^4 + \frac{3}{10}p_\nu^2 p_e^2 + p_e^4$ |
|
||||
| `F2U` | Second forbidden (unique) | 2 | $3^-$ | $p_\nu^4 + \frac{3}{10}p_\nu^2 p_e^2 + p_e^4$ |
|
||||
| `F3` | Third forbidden (non-unique) | 3 | $0^\pm, 1^\pm, 2^\pm, 3^+, 4^\pm$ | $p_\nu^6 + 7p_\nu^4 p_e^2 + 7p_\nu^2 p_e^4 + p_e^6$ |
|
||||
| `F3U` | Third forbidden (unique) | 3 | $4^-$ | $p_\nu^6 + 7p_\nu^4 p_e^2 + 7p_\nu^2 p_e^4 + p_e^6$ |
|
||||
| `F4` | Fourth forbidden (unique) | 4 | $5^-$ | $p_\nu^6 + 7p_\nu^4 p_e^2 + 7p_\nu^2 p_e^4 + p_e^6$ |
|
||||
|
||||
The forbidden factor multiplies the baseline phase space $p_e W_e p_\nu W_\nu$, modifying the spectral shape at higher energies. The even/odd suffix (`U`) distinguishes **unique** transitions (single contributing nuclear matrix element) from **non-unique** ones (multiple contributing matrix elements).
|
||||
|
||||
> [!note] Shape factor
|
||||
> For a complete treatment of forbidden transitions, the nuclear **shape factor** $C(Z,W)$ from `[[10-nuclear-structure]]` should also be included. This is not yet implemented in the calculator.

## Dependencies
|
||||
|
||||
**Runtime:** numpy, scipy (for `loggamma`, `spence`), matplotlib (plotting), pandas (CSV export)
