Can double beta decay solve the problem of the neutrino rest mass

Description

The 2ν double beta (ββ) decay of 130Te and 128Te is calculated in the BCS pairing model. A correct treatment of the phase space integral shows that the Pontecorvo argument leads to an incorrect half-life ratio. This has severe impact on the discussion of neutrinoless ββ decay and a possible neutrino mass. (orig.)
