Description

The MONUMENT experiment aims to support nuclear matrix element calculations of neutrinoless double beta decay by investigating ordinary muon capture on double-beta daughter isotopes. These measurements were performed at the muon beamline of the Paul Scherrer Institute using a setup of high-purity germanium detectors and scintillator counters. The measured muon lifetimes can be compared to theoretical calculations of the total capture rates. A new analysis of the muon lifetime in $^{76}$Se, including a detailed treatment of systematic uncertainties, will be presented in this contribution.
