We review the cancellation mechanism between light and heavy neutrinos in no-neutrino double beta decay, and the limits on the mass and mixing angle for the heavy neutrino. We emphasize that the effective mass for no-neutrino double beta decay varies with atomic weight, being heavier the lighter the parent nucleus. A search for double beta decay in /sup 48/Ca will be an excellent test of this mechanism.
