| Popis: | Because of a high energy of the neutrinoless double-beta decay (0ν2β) of the isotope 150Nd and a high value of the daughter-nucleus charge Zf, 150Nd is one of the most promising isotopes for 0ν2β-decay searches. A 150Nd-containing detector on the basis of a liquid organic scintillator permits employing large isotope masses. Requirements on the radiation purity of the neodymium sample used are determined. The possible design of a large-scale detector of this type and expected results are considered. |
