Abstract

We report the results of an experimental search for double-

β

decay of

{}^{100}{Mo}

. No evidence is found for the decay mode with majoron emission, yielding a half-life limit of 3.3×

10^{20}

yr with 90% confidence. We also obtain a lower limit for the two-neutrino mode of 3.8×

10^{18}

yr.
