Precision measurement of $^{\mathbf{210}}$Bi $β$-spectrum

The precision measurement of the $β-$spectrum shape for $^{210}$Bi (historically RaE) have been performed with a spectrometer based on semiconductor Si(Li) detector. This first forbidden non-unique transition has the transition form-factor strongly deviated from unity and knowledge of its spectrum would play an important role in low-background physics in presence of $^{210}$Pb background. The measured transition form-factor could be approximated as $S(W) = 1 + (-0.4363 \pm 0.0037) W + (0.0523 \pm 0.0010) W^2$, that is in good agreement with previous studies and has significantly increased parameter precision.
