Abstract

The search for neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ0\nu\beta\beta) is one of the key experiments for determining unresolved properties of neutrinos. Experimental observation of 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta would provide a clear demonstration of the Majorana nature of neutrinos and a lepton number violating process in particle physics. This report is a brief review describing the 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta process and its significance. The detector technologies used in the present and proposed 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta experiments are compared among their recent experimental results. Moreover, the sensitivities for 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta discovery in a number of present and proposed 0νββ0\nu\beta\beta experiments are introduced.
