Model-independent determination of nuclear weak form factors and implications for Standard Model precision tests

We analyze the recoil corrections in superallowed beta decays of $T=1$, $J^P=0^{+}$ nuclei by fixing the mean square charge weak radius model-independently using the data of multiple charge radii across the nuclear isotriplet. By comparing to model estimations, we argue that the existing theory uncertainty in the statistical rate function $f$ might have been substantially underestimated. We discuss the implications of our proposed strategy for precision tests of Standard Model, including a potential alleviation of the first-row CKM unitarity deficit, and motivate new experiments for charge radii measurements.
