A radiopure cadmium tungstate crystal scintillator, enriched in $^{106}$Cd to 66%, with mass of 216 g ($^{106}$CdWO$_4$), was used to search for double beta decay processes in $^{106}$Cd in coincidence with four ultra-low background high…
In this report I will briefly review the motivation and history of double beta decay search since the first consideration of two neutrino process (2$\beta(2\nu)$) by Maria Goeppert-Mayer in 1935. The first experiments on search for double…
A new generation of neutrinoless double beta decay experiments with improved sensitivity is currently under design and construction. They will probe inverted hierarchy region of the neutrino mass pattern. There is also a revived interest to…
A natural broad energy germanium (BEGe) detector is operated in the China Jinping Underground Laboratory (CJPL) for a feasibility study of building the next generation experiment of the neutrinoless double-beta (0{$\nu\beta\beta$}) decay of…
The NEMO-3 experiment measured the half-life of the $2\nu\beta\beta$ decay and searched for the $0\nu\beta\beta$ decay of $^{116}$Cd. Using $410$ g of $^{116}$Cd installed in the detector with an exposure of $5.26$ y, ($4968\pm74$) events…
The pseudo SU(3) approach is used to describe low lying states and BE(2) intensities of rare earth and actinide nuclei which are double beta decay candidates. The double beta half lives of some of these nuclei to the ground and excited…
Usually considered a background for experimental searches for the hypothetical neutrinoless double beta decay process, two-neutrino double beta decay nevertheless provides a complementary probe of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this…
Two most outstanding questions are puzzling the world of neutrino Physics: the possible Majorana nature of neutrinos and their absolute mass scale. Direct neutrino mass measurements and neutrinoless double beta decay (0nuDBD) are the…
The NEMO collaboration is presently mounting the NEMO-3 detector in the Fr\'ejus Underground Laboratory. This detector, which will be completed by the end of the year 2000, is devoted to the search of neutrinoless double beta decay with…
We consider new modes of two-neutrino and neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decays in which one $\beta$ electron goes over to a continuous spectrum and the other occupies a vacant bound level of the daughter ion. We calculate the corresponding…
Neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay is of fundamental importance for determining the neutrino mass. Although double electron ($\beta^-\beta^-$) decay is the most promising mode, in very recent years interest in double positron…
In an experiment performed at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) using the FRIB Decay Station initiator (FDSi), 15 new half lives of isotopes near $^{54}$Ca were measured. A new method of extracting lifetimes from experimental data,…
A theoretical analysis of the single-state dominance hypothesis for the two-neutrino double-beta decay rates is performed on the examples of the double-beta decays of 100Mo, 116Cd, and 128Te. We also test the validity of an extended…

Neutrinoless double beta decay is a very important process both from the particle and nuclear physics point of view. From the elementary particle point of view it pops up in almost every model. giving rise, among others, to the following…
Searching for neutrinoless double beta decays ($\beta\beta0\nu$) is the only practical way to establish if the neutrinos are their own antiparticles. Due to the smallness of neutrino masses, the lifetime of $\beta\beta0\nu$ is expected to…
Neutrinoless double beta decay (\( 0 \nu \beta \beta \)) is a hypothetical nuclear decay mode with important implications. In particular, observation of this decay would demonstrate that the neutrino is a Majorana particle and that lepton…
