Abstract: | 48Ca, the lightest double beta decay candidate, has been until now the only one simple enough to be treated exactly in the nuclear
shell model. Thus, theββ(2ν) half-life measurement, reported here, provides a unique test of the nuclear physics involved in theββ matrix element calculation. Enriched48Ca sources of two different thicknesses have been exposed in a time projection chamber, and yieldT
