MAJORANA

The MAJORANA Collaboration constructed and operated the Demonstrator, a modular array of enriched germanium detectors searching for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of germanium-76.  The Demonstrator, in conjunction with GERDA, established the feasibility of building a larger ton-scale experiment.  The Demonstrator completed its neutrinoless double-beta decay program in 2021 and is currently being used with natural Ge detectors to search for the isomeric decay of tantalum-180m, the longest-lived nuclear isomer.
