An experimental study of the rearrangements of valence protons and neutrons amongst single-particle orbits during double β decay in 100Mo
Abstract
The rearrangements of protons and neutrons amongst the valence single-particle orbitals during double β decay of 100Mo have been determined by measuring cross sections in (d,p), (p,d), (3He,α) and (3He,d) reactions on 98,100Mo and 100,102Ru targets. The deduced nucleon occupancies reveal significant discrepancies when compared with theoretical calculations; the same calculations have previously been used to determine the nuclear matrix element associated with the decay probability of double β decay of the 100Mo system.
