Search for doubleβdecay of106Cd by using isotopically enriched106CdWO4crystal scintillator
A search for double ? processes in 106Cd was carried out at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN, Italy; by using a CdWC4 crystal scintillator (mass of 215 g) enriched in 106Cd up to 66%. After 6590 h of data taking, half-life limits on double beta processes in 106Cd were set at level of 1019 ? 1021 yr. A possible resonant enhancement of the 0?2? processes has also been estimated in the framework of the QRPA approach.
Search for double-\beta decay of \{106}Cd by using isotopically enriched \{106}CdWO_{4} crystal scintillator
A search for double β processes in 106Cd was carried out at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN (Italy) by using a CdWO4 crystal scintillator (mass of 215 g) enriched in 106Cd up to 66%. After 6590 h of data taking, half-life limits on double beta processes in 106Cd were set at level of 1019 −1021 yr. A possible resonant enhancement of the 0ν2ε processes has also been estimated in the framework of the QRPA approach. peerReviewed
Searches for neutrinoless resonant double electron captures at LNGS
Several experiments were performed during last years at underground (3600 m w.e.) Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) of the INFN (Italy) to search for resonant 2$\varepsilon0\nu$ captures in 96Ru, 106Cd, 136Ce, 156Dy, 158Dy, 180W, 184Os, 190Pt with the help of HP Ge semiconductor detectors, and ZnWO4 and 106CdWO4 crystal scintillators. No evidence for r-2$\varepsilon0\nu$ decays was found, and only T_{1/2} limits were established in the range of 10^{14}-10^{21} yr.
Search for double-βdecay processes in106Cd with the help of a106CdWO4crystal scintillator
A search for double $\ensuremath{\beta}$ processes in ${}^{106}$Cd was carried out at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN (Italy) with the help of a ${}^{106}$CdWO${}_{4}$ crystal scintillator (215 g) enriched in ${}^{106}$Cd up to 66$%$. After 6590 h of data taking, new improved half-life limits on the double $\ensuremath{\beta}$ decay processes in ${}^{106}$Cd were established at the level of ${10}^{19}$--${10}^{21}$ yr; in particular, ${T}_{1/2}^{2\ensuremath{\nu}\ensuremath{\varepsilon}{\ensuremath{\beta}}^{+}}\ensuremath{\geqslant}2.1\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{20}$ yr, ${T}_{1/2}^{2\ensuremath{\nu}2{\ensuremath{\beta}}^{+}}\ensuremath{\geqslant}4.3\ifmmode\tim…

After 6590 h of data taking, new improved half-life limits on the double β decay processes in 106Cd were established at the level of 1019–1021 yr; in particular, T 2νεβ+ 1/2 2.1 × 1020 yr, T 2ν2β+ 1/2 4.3 × 1020 yr, and T 0ν2ε 1/2 1.0 × 1021 yr. The resonant neutrinoless double-electron captures to the 2718-, 2741-, and 2748-keV excited states of 106Pd are restricted to T 0ν2K 1/2 4.3 × 1020 yr, T 0νKL1 1/2 9.5 × 1020 yr, and T 0νKL3 1/2 4.3 × 1020 yr, respectively (all limits at 90% confide…
