description

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.
