| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Creation of matter dominated universe requires violation of lepton number conservation. The violation can be verified by the observation of neutrinoless double beta decay (0nDBD). Our aim is to observe 48Ca 0nDBD with the world best sensitivity by CANDLES system for which we improved performance of the system and developed methods for the enrichment of 48Ca. We installed light pipe, cancellation coil of earth magnetic field and temperature control system which increase light output and lead to improvement of energy resolution. Construction of passive shield leads to reduction of backgrounds by two-orders-of magnitudes. We confirmed that our revised CANDLES III system has sensitivity better than of current limit for 48Ca 0nDBD. We then started long term measurement. We developed enrichment methods by crown-ether resin. A new promising method based on electrophoresis (MCCCE method) was also developed.
