A brief history of double beta decay experiments is presented. The best currently running experiments (NEMO-3 and CUORICINO) and their latest results are described. The best measurements and limits for the $2\nu\beta\beta$, $0\nu\beta\beta$…
The sensitivity for double beta decay studies of Xe-134 and Xe-124 is investigated assuming a potential large scale Xe experiment developed for dark matter searches depleted in Xe-136. The opportunity for an observation of the 2nu double…
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…
Recently, time-dependent current-density functional theory has been extended to include the dynamical interaction of quantum systems with external environments [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 98}, 226403 (2007)]. Here we show that such a theory…
Neutrino potential for neutrinoless double beta decay is studied with focusing on its statistical property. The statistics provide a gross view of understanding amplitude of constitutional components of the nuclear matrix element.
We study, both experimentally and theoretically, short-time modifications of the decay of excitations in a Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) embedded in an optical lattice. Strong enhancement of the decay is observed compared to the Golden…
The ($^{11}$B,$^{11}$Li) double charge-exchange reaction (DCER) at $E(^{11}$B)/$A$=80 MeV was measured for the first time to demonstrate the feasibility of the reaction for studying neutrino nuclear responses for double beta decays (DBD).…
The NEMO-3 results for the double-$\beta$ decay of $^{150}$Nd to the 0$^+_1$ and 2$^+_1$ excited states of $^{150}$Sm are reported. The data recorded during 5.25 yr with 36.6 g of the isotope $^{150}$Nd are used in the analysis. For the…
Second-order processes in physics is a research topic focusing attention from several fields worldwide including, for example, non-linear quantum electrodynamics with high-power lasers, neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay, and stimulated…
The entanglement properties of two-electron atomic systems have been the subject of considerable research activity in recent years. These studies are still somewhat fragmentary, focusing on numerical computations on particular states of…
Neutrinoless double beta decay is a lepton number violating process whose observation would also establish that neutrinos are their own anti-particles. There are many experimental efforts with a variety of techniques. Some (EXO,…
The $\beta^-$ decay of $^{47}$K to $^{47}$Ca is an appropriate mechanism for benchmarking interactions spanning the $sd$ and $pf$ shells, but current knowledge of the $\beta^-$-decay scheme is limited. We have performed a high-resolution,…
We investigate the decays of the excited $(b\bar q)$ mesons as probes of the short-distance structure of the weak $\Delta B=1$ transitions. These states are unstable under the electromagnetic or strong interactions although their widths are…
Bound-state $\beta^-$-decay is a rare radioactive process where the created electron is trapped in an atomic orbital instead of being emitted. It can be observed in highly ionized atoms in particular when normal beta decay is energetically…
The beta-decay of the 6He halo nucleus and the M1-transition processes of the excited 6Li(0+) state into the alpha + d continuum are studied in a three-body model. The initial nuclear states are described as an alpha + 2N system in…
We discuss the contributions of higher order terms in weak Hamiltonian to the standard two-neutrino double beta decay. The formalism for the unique first forbidden transitions has been developed, and it is shown that they can alter the…
A search for double $\beta$ decay of dysprosium was realized for the first time with the help of an ultra low-background HP Ge $\gamma$ detector. After 2512 h of data taking with a 322 g sample of dysprosium oxide limits on double beta…
High precision (p,t) studies of the deformed nucleus 158Gd allowed the observation of 13 excited 0+ states below an excitation energy of 3.1 MeV. This high density of low energy states, and particularly their measured B(E2) transition…
The neutrinoless double $\beta$-decay of nuclei is reviewed. We discuss neutrino mixing and 3x3 PMNS neutrino mixing matrix. Basic theory of neutrinoless double $\beta$-decay is presented in some details. Results of different calculations…
The calculated nuclear matrix elements for the neutrinoless double-beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay suffer from several limitations. Predicted matrix-element values depend on the many-body method used to calculate them and, in addition, they…
