A calculation is made of the partial half-life for the ..beta../sup -/ decay of /sup 48/Ca to the 5/sup +/ state of /sup 48/Sc at 130.94 +- 0.04 keV (an energy release of 147.1 +- 5.0 keV). The estimated partial half-life is 760 x 10/sup 18/ yr. This value is competitive with the most recent estimate of the partial half-life for the 2..nu.. mode of double beta decay.
