A small upper-bound is obtained for the CP phase $\delta$ in a CKM matrix, $|\sin\delta| \le 0.44$ based on CP independent data on $|V_{ub}/V_{cb}|$ alone. Potential inconsistencies with the CKM model in existing data which need a theory…

Neutrinoless double beta decay (\( 0 \nu \beta \beta \)) is a hypothetical nuclear decay mode with important implications. In particular, observation of this decay would demonstrate that the neutrino is a Majorana particle and that lepton…
