An overview of nucleon-transfer studies on 0ν2β-decay candidates 76Ge, 130Te, and 136Xe

Over the last decade, we have completed a systematic program of single-nucleon transfer-reaction measurements to help constrain calculations of nuclear matrix elements for the neutrinoless double-β decay of three promising candidate nuclei, 76Ge→76Se, 130Te→130Xe, and 136Xe→136Ba. An overview of the experiments, analysis methods, and results is given.Over the last decade, we have completed a systematic program of single-nucleon transfer-reaction measurements to help constrain calculations of nuclear matrix elements for the neutrinoless double-β decay of three promising candidate nuclei, 76Ge→76Se, 130Te→130Xe, and 136Xe→136Ba.
