Fermi Function

The Fermi Function is a quantum-mechanical correction factor in beta decay theory that accounts for the Coulomb interaction between the emitted electron and the residual nucleus, distinguishing it from free-particle decay probability calculations by incorporating the distorting effects of the nuclear potential on the electron wavefunction.
