The availability of a monochromatic neutrino source with adjustable energy could be an invaluable tool for the study of Charge-Parity (CP) violation in the leptonic sector in the frame of the Electroweak Theory of the Standard Model. It has been proposed [1] to use as a neutrino source nuclei that decay by means of the electron capture (EC) process inside a storage ring. A systematic study of candidate nuclei in the 146Gd region has been carried out.
In this contribution we show the results of the experimental study of the beta decay of two possible candidate nuclei (152Yb and 150Er) using the Total Absortion Gamma Spectroscopy (TAGS) technique. A comparison of these results with earlier high resolution measurements will be discussed.
