Startup of the NEMO 3 experiment

/ Authors

/ Abstract

The NEMO collaboration is looking to measure neutrinoless double beta decay down to a lower limit of 0.1 eV for the effective neutrino mass. The NEMO 3 detector is now operating in the Frejus Underground Laboratory. The expected performance and the data of the first runs are presented here.
