Abstract

T he NUMEN project proposes to study heavy - ion induced Double Charge Exchange (DCE) reactions with the final goal to get information on the nuclear matrix elements for neutrinoless double beta ( 0νββ ) decay. The knowledge of the nuclear matrix elem ents is crucial to infer the neutrino average masses from the possible measurement of the half - life of 0νββ decay. DCE reactions and 0νββ decay present some similarities, the initial and final - state wave functions are the same and the transition operators are similar. The experimental measurements of DCE reactions induced by heavy ions present a number of challenging aspects, since they are characterized by very low cross sections
