| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Majorana nature, which means no difference between material and anti-material, is realistically confirmed by only the experimental discovery of neutrinoless double beta decay in nuclei. This research is an R&D project to construct a large scale momentum analyzer that can measure the momentum of each beta-ray emitted from the nuclear double beta decay. The project is the only one searching for neutrinoless double beta decay by measuring a beta-ray momentum all over the world. This method can extremely reduce the backgrounds in searching for neutrinoless double beta decay events better than the energy measurement method using calorimetry.
