Positron-Neutrino Correlation in the 01 ! 01 Decay of 32Ar[Phys. Rev. Lett. 83, 1299 (1999)]

E. G. Adelberger, C. Ortiz, A. Garcı́a, H. E. Swanson, M. Beck, O. Tengblad, M. J. G. Borge, I. Martel,H. Bichsel, and the ISOLDE Collaboration

Equation (6) of our Letter should read

Tmax ��D 2 m�2 2 m2

2Mi, (6)

which implies Tmax � 517 eV and a maximum daughter velocity of y � 1.86 3 1024c. In one mean life the daughtertravels, at most, 1.9 3 1022 Å before emitting the proton. None of the experimental results in this paper are affectedby these errors as the codes used to calculate the intrinsic shapes were correct. We thank F. Glück for pointing out theseerrors in the text.
