Researches on neutrinoless double beta decay have crucial implications on particle physics, cosmology and fundamental physics. It is likely the most promising process to access the absolute neutrino mass scale. To determine quantitative information from the possible measurement of the 0νββ decay half-lives, the knowledge of the Nuclear Matrix Elements (NME) involved in such transitions is...
Double charge exchange excitations (DCX) induced by heavy ion beams at intermediate energies [1],[2] attract a lot of interest in relations with new collective excitations such as double isobaric analog states (DIAS) and double Gamow-Teller giant resonance (DGTR) . This reaction is also closely linked with double beta decay matrix elements. In 1980s, the double charge exchange reactions...
Heavy ion charge exchange reactions are of manyfold interest for nuclear reaction and structure physics. In a recent paper [1] a fully microscopic theory of heavy ion single charge exchange (SCE) reactions was formulated. Here, a new theoretical approach is presented, emphasizing the role of single and double charge exchange reactions for probing nuclear response functions of the same type as...
