Abstract

Searches for new physics can be conducted by brute force or, like the perihelion shift of Mercury, looking for subtle but persistent discrepancies. This detailed paper carries out high-precision calculations of the $\ensuremath{\beta}$-decay spectrum of ${}^{6}$He, and estimates the experimental precision needed to reveal hints of charged-current interactions beyond the Standard Model and/or sterile neutrinos.
