Description
The AMoRE collaboration aims to investigate rare processes, including neutrinoless double electron capture ($0\nu2\mathrm{EC}$), an intriguing alternative to neutrinoless double-beta decay for exploring the fundamental nature of neutrinos. We will present a comprehensive analysis of the $0\nu2\mathrm{EC}$ process in $^{40}\mathrm{Ca}$, utilizing the high-purity, enriched calcium molybdate ($^{48dep}\mathrm{Ca}^{100}\mathrm{MoO}_4$) detectors from the AMoRE-I experiment.
Taking advantage of the low-background environment and high energy resolution of the AMoRE-I setup, we thoroughly searched for the $0\nu2\mathrm{EC}$ signature at the decay’s Q-value (193.5 keV). In this presentation, we report preliminary studies on the half-life of $0\nu2\mathrm{EC}$ in $^{40}\mathrm{Ca}$ and highlight the sensitivity of low-temperature calorimeters in probing rare decay processes.
