The discovery of neutrinoless β β decay could soon be within reach. This hypothetical
ultrarare nuclear decay offers a privileged portal to physics beyond the standard model of …

Neutrinoless double-beta decay is a forbidden, lepton-number-violating nuclear transition
whose observation would have fundamental implications for neutrino physics, theories …

We review the status and prospects of heavy-ion double charge exchange (HI-DCE)
reactions. Their important role for nuclear reaction, nuclear structure and double beta-decay …

Neutrinoless double beta decay (0 ν β β) is a crucial test for lepton number violation.
Observation of this process would have fundamental implications for neutrino physics …

Background: A systematic exploration of one-nucleon transfer reactions induced by the (O
18, F 19) and (O 18, O 17) reactions on different targets (C 12, O 16, Al 27, Ca 40, Ti 48, Se …

We evaluate the leading-order short-range nuclear matrix element for the neutrinoless
double-beta (0 ν β β) decay of the nuclei most relevant for experiments, including 76 Ge, 100 …

The status and prospects of heavy ion charge exchange reactions are reviewed. Their
important role for nuclear reaction, nuclear structure, and beta-decay investigations is …

Background: Single-charge-exchange reactions are appropriate tools to study the nuclear
response to one-particle/one-hole isospin probes, gaining additional interest from the …

Particle identification techniques are fundamental tools in nuclear physics experiments.
Discriminating particles or nuclei produced in nuclear interactions allows to better …

An upgraded and improved version of the Focal Plane Detector (FPD) of the large-
acceptance magnetic spectrometer MAGNEX is described here. The FPD consists of a …
