Summary:A program of high-precision half-life and branching-ratio measurements for superallowed Fermi beta emitters is being carried out at TRIUMF's Isotope Separator and Accelerator (ISAC) radioactive ion beam facility. Recent half-life measurements for the superallowed decays of super(14)O, super(18)Ne, and super(26)Alm, as well as branching-ratio measurements for super(26)Alm and super(74)Rb are reported. These results provide demanding tests of the Standard Model and the theoretical isospin symmetry breaking (ISB) corrections in superallowed Fermi beta decays.
