Description

The present status of experiments seeking double-beta decay is surveyed. The results of the most sensitive modern experiments-NEMO-3 and CUORICINO-are discussed. The most promising projects of double-beta-decay experiments, where it is planned to reach a sensitivity to the effective mass of the Majorana neutrino at a level of 0.01 to 0.1 eV, are described
