Observation of lepton number violation would represent a groundbreaking discovery with profound consequences for fundamental physics and as such, it has motivated an extensive experimental program searching for neutrinoless double beta…
In the context of TeV-scale lepton number violating (LNV) interactions, we illustrate the interplay between leptogenesis, neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay, and LNV searches at proton-proton colliders. Using a concrete model…
We describe nuFATE Neutrino Fast Attenuation Through Earth, a very rapid method of accurately computing the attenuation of high-energy neutrinos during their passage through Earth to detectors such as IceCube, ANTARES or KM3Net, including…
Ruling out the inverted neutrino hierarchy with neutrinoless double beta decay experiments is possible if a limit on the effective mass below the minimal theoretically possible value is reached. We stress that this lower limit depends…
We investigate a novel method of accurate calculation of the neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay shell-model nuclear matrix elements for the experimentally relevant case of $^{76}$Ge. We demonstrate that with the new method the nuclear matrix…
Many experiments whose goal is the search for neutrino-less double beta decay are taking data or in a final construction stage. The need for a tool that allows for an objective comparison between the sensitivity of different experiments is…
Neutrinoless double beta ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay can in general produce electrons of either chirality, in contrast with the minimal Standard Model (SM) extension with only the addition of the Weinberg operator, which predicts two…
Neutrinoless double beta decay is one of the most powerful tools to set the neutrino mass absolute scale and establish whether the neutrino is a Majorana particle. After a summary of the neutrinoless double beta decay phenomenology, the…
The extension of Majorana neutrino mass mechanism of the neutrinoless double-beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) with the inclusion of right-handed leptonic and hadronic currents is revisited. While only the exchange of light neutrinos is…
We analyze the sensitivity of next-generation tonne-scale neutrinoless double $\beta$-decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) experiments and searches for same-sign di-electrons plus jets at the Large Hadron Collider to TeV scale lepton number violating…
We investigate neutrinoless double-beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) in the minimal extension of the standard model of particle physics, the $\nu$SM, where gauge-singlet right-handed neutrinos give rise to Dirac and Majorana neutrino mass…
Using data from the NEMO-3 experiment, we have measured the two-neutrino double beta decay ($2\nu\beta\beta$) half-life of $^{82}$Se as $T_{1/2}^{2\nu} = \left[ 9.39 \pm 0.17\,\left(\mbox{stat}\right) \pm…
In the Standard Model the total lepton number is conserved. Thus, neutrinoless double-beta decay, in which the total lepton number is violated by two units, is a probe of physics beyond the Standard Model. In this review we consider the…
We investigate neutrinoless double-beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) in minimal extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics where gauge-singlet right-handed neutrinos give rise to Dirac and Majorana neutrino mass terms. We argue that…
The SuperNEMO project aims to search for neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) up to a sensitivity of 10$^{26}$ years for the $0\nu\beta\beta$ half-life (down to 50 meV in the effective Majorana neutrino mass), using $\sim$100…
In this article we present a more detailed version of our recent Rapid Communication [Phys. Rev. C 90, 051301(R) (2014)] where we calculate the nuclear matrix elements for neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay of $^{76}$Ge. For the calculations…
The SuperNEMO project aims to search for neutrinoless double beta decay ($0\nu\beta\beta$) up to a sensitivity of 10$^{26}$ years for the $0\nu\beta\beta$ half-life (down to $\sim$ 50~meV in the effective Majorana neutrino mass), using…
Neutrinoless double decay is a unique probe for lepton number conservation and neutrino properties. It allows to investigate the Dirac/Majorana nature of the neutrinos and their absolute mass scale (hierarchy problem) with unprecedented…
Neutrinoless double-beta decay is a nuclear decay, given as $(A,Z) \rightarrow (A, Z+2) +2e^{-}$, with deep consequences for the understanding of our universe. A strong experimental program is underway to search for this transition with…
The neutrinoless double-$\beta$ ($0\nu\beta\beta$) decay and the double Gamow-Teller (DGT) transition are investigated with the state-of-the-art Relativistic Configuration-interaction Density functional theory. A strong linear correlation…
