Search for double-β decay processes in 108Cd and 114Cd with the help of the low-background CdWO4 crystal scintillator

The search for double-beta processes in (108)Cd and (114)Cd was realized by using data of the low-background experiment with the CdWO(4) crystal scintillator at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of the INFN. New improved half-life limits on double-beta processes were established, in particular T(1/2)(0 nu 2 epsilon)((108)Cd) >= 1.0(2.7) x 10(18) yr, T(1/2)(2 nu 2 beta)((114)Cd) >= 1.3(2.1) x 10(18) yr, and T(1/2)(0 nu 2 beta)((114)Cd) >= 1.1(2.5) x 10(21) yr at 90(68)% C.L.
