The neutrinoless double-beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay is a unique process to identify the Majorana nature of massive neutrinos, and its rate depends on the size of the effective Majorana neutrino mass $\langle m\rangle_{ee}$. We put forward…
If massive neutrinos are the Majorana particles and have a normal mass ordering, the effective mass term $\langle m\rangle^{}_{ee}$ of a neutrinoless double-beta ($0\nu 2\beta$) decay may suffer significant cancellations among its three…
The search for neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) is one of the key experiments for determining unresolved properties of neutrinos. Experimental observation of $0\nu\beta\beta$ would provide a clear demonstration of the…
We investigate the predictions for neutrinoless double beta ($(\beta \beta)_{0 \nu}$-) decay effective Majorana mass $\left| \langle \, m \, \rangle \right|$ in the 3+1 and 3+2 schemes with one and two additional sterile neutrinos with…
The search for neutrinoless double beta decay is a rich source for new physics. The observation of this decay will lead to understanding of the absolute mass scale of neutrinos, the Majorana nature of the neutrino (whether the neutrino is…
Recently the evidence of the neutrinoless double $\beta$ ($0\nu \beta\beta$) decay has been announced. This means that neutrinos are Majorana particles and their mass hierarchy is forced to certain patterns in the diagonal basis of charged…
The $\nu_M{\rm SM}$ is defined as the SM extended to include dimension-5 operators. In this model neutrino masses violate lepton number, and two parameters of the lepton mixing matrix, the Majorana phases, are yet to be constrained. One…
An overview of modern experiments on the search for neutrinoless double decay is presented. The obtained limits on the effective mass of the Majorana neutrino $\langle m_{\nu} \rangle$ are discussed taking into account the uncertainties in…
The observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay (0${\nu}{\beta}{\beta}$) would show that lepton number is violated, reveal that neutrinos are Majorana particles, and provide information on neutrino mass. A discovery-capable experiment…
The theoretical and experimental issues relevant to neutrinoless double-beta decay are reviewed. The impact that a direct observation of this exotic process would have on elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics and…
Study of the neutrinoless $\beta\beta$ decay allows us to put a stringent limit on the effective neutrino Majorana mass, a quantity of fundamental importance. To test our ability to evaluate the nuclear matrix elements that govern the decay…
The objective of the Majorana Experiment is to study neutrinoless double beta decay (0nbb) with an effective Majorana-neutrino mass sensitivity below 50 meV in order to characterize the Majorana nature of the neutrino, the Majorana mass…
Two most outstanding questions are puzzling the world of neutrino Physics: the possible Majorana nature of neutrinos and their absolute mass scale. Direct neutrino mass measurements and neutrinoless double beta decay (0nuDBD) are the…
The study of neutrinoless double-beta decay plays a fundamental role in the understanding of neutrino physics. Its observation would prove that neutrinos are Majorana particles and that lepton number is not conserved. Experimental searches…
The relations between the effective Majorana mass of the electron neutrino, $m_{ee}$, responsible for neutrinoless double beta decay, and the neutrino oscillation parameters are considered. We show that for any specific oscillation pattern…
The recent neutrino oscillation experimental results indicate that at least one neutrino has a mass greater than 50 meV. The next generation of double-beta decay experiments will very likely have a sensitivity to an effective Majorana…
The Bayesian discovery probability of future experiments searching for neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay is evaluated under the popular assumption that neutrinos are their own antiparticles. A Bayesian global fit is performed to construct a…
Assuming that neutrinos are Majorana particles, in a three generation framework, current and future neutrino oscillation experiments can determine six out of the nine parameters which fully describe the structure of the neutrino mass…
Cosmology is making impressive progress and it is producing stringent bounds on the sum of the neutrino masses {\Sigma}, a parameter of great importance for the current laboratory experiments. In this letter, we exploit the potential…
The status of the search for neutrinoless double beta decay is reviewed. The effort to reach the sensitivity needed to cover the effective Majorana neutrino mass corresponding to the degenerate and inverted mass hierarchy is described.…
