The model yields an estimate for the extent to which isobaric analog 0+ states in light and medium mass nuclei may mix with one another and reveals possible, but still extremely weak, non-analog beta-decay transitions.8 pages, 2 figuresNuclear TheoryIsospin symmetry breaking in an algebraic pairing Sp(4) modeltext
