A xenon time projection chamber for double beta decay

Conference ·
OSTI ID:6270722
; ; ; ; ;
A time projection chamber has been built to search for neutrinoless double beta decay in /sup 136/Xe. The detector will be sensitive enough to set a lifetime limit of 8 /times/ 10/sup 22/ years in 1 year of running time. 6 refs., 2 figs., 1 tab.
