Energy resolution, alpha/beta ratio, pulse-shape discrimination for gamma rays and alpha particles, temperature dependence of scintillation properties, and radioactive contamination were studied with CaMoO4 crystal scintillators. A high sensitivity experiment to search for neutrinoless double beta decay of 100-Mo by using CaMoO4 scintillators is discussed.

The CUPID-Mo experiment at the Laboratoire Souterrain de Modane (France) is a demonstrator for CUPID, the next-generation ton-scale cryogenic $0 ubetabeta$ experiment. It consists of a 4.2 kg array of 20 enriched Li$_{2}$$^{100}$MoO$_4$ scintillating
bolometers to search for the lepton number violating process of $0 ubetabeta$ decay in $^{100}$Mo. With more than one year of operation (2.16 kg$times$yr of physics data), no event in the region of interest and hence no evidence for $0 ubetabeta$ is observed. We report a new limit on the half-life of $0 ubetabeta$ decay in $^{100}$Mo of $T_{1/2} > 1.5 times 10^{24},$yr at 90 % C.I. The limit corresponds to an effective Majorana neutrino mass $langle m_{betabeta} rangle$ $<$ (0.31--0.54)$,$eV, dependent on the nuclear matrix element in the light Majorana neutrino exchange interpretation.
PbWO4 crystal scintillators are discussed as an active shield and light-guides in 116Cd double beta decay experiment with CdWO4 scintillators. Scintillation properties and radioactive contamination of PbWO4 scintillators were investigated. Energy res
olution of CdWO4 detector, coupled to PbWO4 crystal as a light-guide, was tested. Efficiency of PbWO4-based active shield to suppress background from the internal contamination of PbWO4 crystals was calculated. Using of lead tungstate crystal scintillators as high efficiency 4-pi active shield could allow to build sensitive double beta experiment with 116CdWO4 crystal scintillators.
The NEMO-3 detector, which had been operating in the Modane Underground Laboratory from 2003 to 2010, was designed to search for neutrinoless double $beta$ ($0 ubetabeta$) decay. We report final results of a search for $0 ubetabeta$ decays with $6.91
4$ kg of $^{100}$Mo using the entire NEMO-3 data set with a detector live time of $4.96$ yr, which corresponds to an exposure of 34.3 kg$cdot$yr. We perform a detailed study of the expected background in the $0 ubetabeta$ signal region and find no evidence of $0 ubetabeta$ decays in the data. The level of observed background in the $0 ubetabeta$ signal region $[2.8-3.2]$ MeV is $0.44 pm 0.13$ counts/yr/kg, and no events are observed in the interval $[3.2-10]$ MeV. We therefore derive a lower limit on the half-life of $0 ubetabeta$ decays in $^{100}$Mo of $T_{1/2}(0 ubetabeta)> 1.1 times 10^{24}$ yr at the $90%$ Confidence Level, under the hypothesis of light Majorana neutrino exchange. Depending on the model used for calculating nuclear matrix elements, the limit for the effective Majorana neutrino mass lies in the range $langle m_{ u} rangle < 0.33$--$0.62$ eV. We also report constraints on other lepton-number violating mechanisms for $0 ubetabeta$ decays.
The full data set of the NEMO-3 experiment has been used to measure the half-life of the two-neutrino double beta decay of $^{100}$Mo to the ground state of $^{100}$Ru, $T_{1/2} = left[ 6.81 pm 0.01,left(mbox{stat}right) ^{+0.38}_{-0.40},left(mbox{sy
st}right) right] times10^{18}$ y. The two-electron energy sum, single electron energy spectra and distribution of the angle between the electrons are presented with an unprecedented statistics of $5times10^5$ events and a signal-to-background ratio of ~80. Clear evidence for the Single State Dominance model is found for this nuclear transition. Limits on Majoron emitting neutrinoless double beta decay modes with spectral indices of n=2,3,7, as well as constraints on Lorentz invariance violation and on the bosonic neutrino contribution to the two-neutrino double beta decay mode are obtained.
We report the results of a search for the neutrinoless double-$beta$ decay (0$ ubetabeta$) of $^{100}$Mo, using the NEMO-3 detector to reconstruct the full topology of the final state events. With an exposure of 34.7 kg.y, no evidence for the 0$ ubet
abeta$ signal has been found, yielding a limit for the light Majorana neutrino mass mechanism of $T_{1/2}(0 ubetabeta)>1.1 times 10^{24}$ years (90% C.L.) once both statistical and systematic uncertainties are taken into account. Depending on the Nuclear Matrix Elements this corresponds to an upper limit on the Majorana effective neutrino mass of $< m_{ u} > < 0.3-0.9$ eV (90% C.L.). Constraints on other lepton number violating mechanisms of 0$ ubetabeta$ decays are also given. Searching for high-energy double electron events in all suitable sources of the detector, no event in the energy region [3.2-10] MeV is observed for an exposure of 47 kg.y.
