Combining hybrid and opaque scintillator techniques in the search for double beta plus decays by Manuel Böhlers, Sebastian Böser, Magdalena Eisenhuth, Cloé Girard-Carillo, Kitzia M. Hernandez Curiel, Bastian Keßler, Kyra Mossel, Veronika Palušová, Stefan Schoppmann, Alfons Weber, Michael Wurm

“…This approach is particularly suitable for detecting positrons (beta plus) signatures. We expect to discover two-neutrino double beta plus decay modes within 1 tonne-week exposure and are able to probe neutrinoless double beta plus decays at several orders of magnitude improved significance compared to current experimental limits.…”
