Laser isotope separation to study for the neutrino-less double beta decay of 48Ca

Abstract

Abstract The laser isotope separation (LIS) system is being developed for the study of neutrino-less double beta decay of 48Ca. A proof-of-principle experiment has been successfully conducted, and development of a mass production (∼1 mol/year) system is currently underway. For stable and efficient production, we are preparing an atomic beam system capable of producing a well-collimated beam with sufficient flux and a high-power semiconductor laser system with stable frequency over a long period of time.
