We consider the process $e^+e^-\to N_1N_2$, where $N_1$ and $N_2$ are heavy Majorana particles, with relative $CP$ given by $\eta_{CP}=+1$ or $-1$, decaying subsequently via $N_1,N_2\to W^{\pm}e^{\mp}$. We derive the energy and angle…

The NLC may allow us to search for the `inverse' process to neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay, $e^-e^-\to W^-W^-$, which probes the existence of Majorana masses for neutrinos. Expectations for the observation of this process in both the…
