Building a Ovββ experiment with the ability to probe neutrino mass in the inverted hierarchy region requires the combination of a large detector mass sensitive to Ovββ, on the order of 1-tonne, and unprecedented background levels, on the order of or less than 1 count per year in the Ovβ β signal region. The MAJORANA Collaboration proposes a design based on using high-purity enriched 76Ge crystals deployed in ultralow background electroformed Cu cryostats and using modern analysis techniques that should be capable of reaching the required sensitivity while also being scalable to a 1-tonne size. To demonstrate feasibility, the collaboration plans to construct a prototype system, the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR, consisting of 30 kg of 86% enriched 76Ge detectors and 30 kg of natural or isotope-76-depleted Ge detectors. We plan to deploy and evaluate two different Ge detector technologies, one based on a p-type configuration and the other on n-type.
