Abstract
Effective beta-decay coupling constants G′ v and G′ A are defined which include renomalizing effects due to the electromagnetic interaction. Analysis of recent beta-decay data then gives G′ v = 1.4150 ± 0.0011 × 10 −49 erg · cm 3 and |G′ A G′ v| = 1.226 ± 0.011 . It is concluded that only those theories of electromagnetic radiative corrections which take account of a very heavy intermediate vector boson are able to reconcile the values of G′ v , G μ and the Cabibbo angle determined from polar vector strangeness changing semi-leptonie decays.
