Abstract

An experiment for the detection of 0ν^β/EC in ⁹²Mo nuclei has been carried out with a newly developed scintillating crystal, CaMoO₄, surrounded by CsI(Tl) crystals. We study the background events inside the event selection window for 0ν^β/ EC decays of CaMoO₄ detector. The ⁹²Mo 0ν^β/EC decay half-life limit was set to 2.3×10 ²⁰ years with a 90% confidence level. A perspective on the current experiment is discussed.
