چکیده

Spectroscopic studies of two beta rays from 100Mo are shown to be of potential interest for investigating both the Majorana nu mass by neutrinoless double beta decay (0nubetabeta) and low energy solar nu's by inverse beta decay. With a multiton 100Mo detector, coincidence studies of correlated betabeta from 0nubetabeta, together with the large Q value ( Q(betabeta)), permit identification of the nu-mass term with a sensitivity of approximately 0.03 eV. Correlation studies of the inverse beta decay and the successive beta decay of 100Tc, together with the large capture rates for low energy solar nu's, make it possible to detect, in real time, individual low energy solar nu in the same detector.

First results of the search for neutrinoless double-beta decay with the NEMO 3 detector.

The NEMO 3 detector, which has been operating in the Fréjus underground laboratory since February 2003, is devoted to the search for neutrinoless double-beta decay (beta beta 0v). The half-lives of the two neutrino double-beta decay (beta beta 2v) have been measured for 100Mo and 82Se. After 389 effective days of data collection from February 2003 until September 2004 (phase I), no evidence for...

Statistics of neutrinos and the double beta decay

We assume that the Pauli exclusion principle is violated for neutrinos, and thus, neutrinos obey at least partly the Bose-Einstein statistics. The parameter sin χ is introduced that characterizes the bosonic (symmetric) fraction of the neutrino wave function. Consequences of the violation of the exclusion principle for the twoneutrino double beta decays (2νββ-decays) are considered. This violat...

The NEMO-3 tracking detector is located in the Fréjus Underground Laboratory. It was designed to study double beta decay in a number of different isotopes. Presented here are the experimental half-life limits on the double beta decay process for the isotopes 100Mo and 82Se for different Majoron emission modes and limits on the effective neutrino-Majoron coupling constants. In particular, new li...

Average and recommended half-life values for two neutrino double beta decay: upgrade-09

All existing “positive” results on two neutrino double beta decay in different nuclei were analyzed. Using the procedure recommended by the Particle Data Group, weighted average values for half-lives of 48Ca, 76Ge, 82Se, 96Zr, 100Mo, 100Mo 100Ru (01 ), 116Cd, 130Te, 150Nd, 150Nd 150Sm (01 ) and 238U were obtained. Existing geochemical data were analyzed and recommended values for half-lives of ...

MeV neutrinos in double beta decay

The effect of Majorana neutrinos in the MeV mass range on the double beta decay of various isotopes is studied on pure phenomenological arguments. By using only experimental half life data, limits on the mixing parameter U eh of the order 10 −7 can be derived. Also the possible achievements of upcoming experiments and some consequences are outlined. One of the major challenges of modern physics...
