Search for two-neutrino double electron capture in Ar with the DarkSide-50 detector

50 Collaboration, P. Agnes, I. F. M. Albuquerque +83

Two-neutrino double electron capture is a rare nuclear decay where two electrons are simultaneously captured from the atomic shells and two neutrinos are emitted. We report on the…
