Evaluation of the resonance enhancement effect in neutrinoless double-electron capture in 152Gd, 164Er and 180W atoms

arXiv:1111.6862 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevC.85.035503

Abstract

We study the resonant neutrinoless double-electron capture (0nECEC) in 152Gd, 164Er and 180W atoms, associated with the ground-state to ground-state nuclear transitions. The corresponding matrix elements are calculated within the deformed QRPA using the realistic Bonn-CD nucleon-nucleon interaction. The half-lives are estimated with the use of the most recent precision data on the Q-values of these processes. Perspectives of experimental search for the 0nECEC with the isotopes 152Gd, 164Er and 180W are discussed.
