The observation of neutrino oscillations has proved that neutrinos have mass.
This discovery has renewed and strengthened the interest in neutrinoless
double beta decay experiments which provide the only practical way to
determine whether neutrinos are Majorana or Dirac particles.
NEMO-3, located in the Modane Underground Laboratory in
the Frejus Tunnel under the French-Italian Alps, is an ongoing
experiment looking for neutrinoless double beta decays using
a powerful technique for detecting a two-electron final state
by employing an apparatus combining tracking, calorimetry,
and the time-of-flight measurements. We will present results from
NEMO-3 and will discuss the status of SuperNEMO, the next generation
experiment that will exploit the same experimental technique
to extend the sensitivity of the current search.
