First Results from the Soviet-American Experiment on Double-Beta Decay of <sup>100</sup>Mo to the Excited States of <sup>100</sup>Ru
The half-life for the double-beta decay of <sup>100</sup>Mo to the 1130 keV-level of <sup>100</sup>Ru has been measured to be ($1.780.60^{+1.85}_{-0.60}$) • 10<sup>21</sup> y by observing the 590.76- and 539.53- keV gamma rays emitted in the O<sub>1</sub><sup>+</sup>→2<sub>1</sub><sup>+</sup>→O<sub>0</sub><sup>+</sup> de-excitation cascade.
