A search for the radiative neutrinoless double electron capture of   $^{58}$Ni
  A search for the radiative neutrinoless double electron capture with single \gray\ emission has been performed in $^{58}$Ni. Gamma radiation from a 7286 g nickel sample in natural isotope composition was measured for 58.3 d with an ultra low background HPGe detector in the Felsenkeller underground laboratory in Dresden, Germany. A new lower half-life limit of $2.1 \times 10^{21}$ yr (90% CL) was obtained for this decay mode. This half-life limit is two orders of magnitude higher than the existing limit for $^{58}$Ni and among the best half-life limits for neutrinoless double electron capture decays.
