Neutrinoless double beta decay and direct searches for neutrino mass

High Energy Physics - Phenomenology 2007-05-23 v1 Nuclear Experiment Nuclear Theory

Abstract

Study of the neutrinoless double beta decay and searches for the manifestation of the neutrino mass in ordinary beta decay are the main sources of information about the absolute neutrino mass scale, and the only practical source of information about the charge conjugation properties of the neutrinos. Thus, these studies have a unique role in the plans for better understanding of the whole fast expanding field of neutrino physics.
