Abstract
An efficient Monte Carlo method for order-alpha photon bremsstrahlung calculations in allowed nuclear, neutron and pion beta decays is prese nted. This method is useful for radiative correction calculations and for weighted or unweighted event generations in experimental off-line data analyses. The most important intermediate steps of the calculatio ns are also described. Several numerical results of the Monte Carlo pr ogram are compared with published analytical and numerical quadrature calculation results.
