Abstract

We present new constraints on the neutrino Majorana masses from the current data of neutrinoless double beta decay and neutrino flavour mixing. With the latest results of 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta progresses from various isotopes, including the recent calculations of the nuclear matrix elements, we find that the strongest constraint of the effective Majorana neutrino mass is from the 136Xe^{136}\rm{Xe} data of the EXO-200 and KamLAND-Zen collaborations. Further more, by combining the 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta experimental data with the neutrino mixing parameters from new analyses, we get the mass upper limits of neutrino mass eigenstates and flavour eigenstates and suggest several relations among these neutrino masses.
