Abstract A method to calculate the two-neutrino double beta decay (2vββ) to one-phonon excited states is presented. The formalism, which is based on the quasiparticle random phase approximation, is applied to the description of the 2vββ transition 136Xe (0 g.e. + ) → 136 Ba (2 1 + ). It is shown that the participant matrix element is not suppressed by the inclusion of renormalized particle-particle interactions.
