Abstract

We report on the calculation of double-β decay properties of 130Te and 136Xe within the framework of the realistic shell model. The effective shell-model Hamiltonian and Gamow-Teller transition operator are derived by way of many-body perturbation theory, in order to not to resort to an empirical quenching of the axial coupling constant g A. The results compare well with experimental data, paving the way to the calculation of the neutrinoless double-β decay nuclear matrix element for the nuclei that are currently the experimental target for the detection of this process. In this work we investigate about the perturbative properties of our approach, and the theoretical reliability of the realistic shell model.
