“…The 2νββ decay mode of 48 Ca was first discovered in the Hoover Dam TPC experiment employing approximately 14 g of isotope [18]. With a sample of approximately 100 events, the half-life was measured to be T based on only five events in the region of interest [19]. Both of these measurements are in agreement with the shell-model prediction of T 2ν 1=2 ¼ 3.7 × 10 19 yr [20].…”

“…The obtained half-life value is, T 2ν 1/2 = [4.4 +0.5 −0.4 (stat) ± 0.4(syst)] · 10 19 y. This value is in good agreement with two previous measurements [33,34], and has much higher precision. The half-life value obtained is in good agreement with the Shell Model prediction of T 2ν 1/2 = 3.9 · 10 19 y [35].…”

“…Taking only the matrix elements below 5 MeV, we deduce a half-life of T (2ν) 1/2 = (2.00 ± 0.42) × 10 19 years. If one applies the reduction of the ββ-matrix element M (2ν) DGT by the afore-mentioned 24% originating from destructive contributions of higher (and unresolved) levels one would deduce T (2ν) 1/2 = (3.55 ± 0.75) × 10 19 years (preliminary), which compares well with the value from the most recent counting experiments [31,32], T Clearly, by compromising on resolution, the detailed structure of the nuclear response visible in the present case would otherwise remain completely elusive.…”
