Neutrinoless Double Β-decay:the Problem of Nuclear Matrix Elements
نویسنده
چکیده
The calculations of nuclear matrix elements of 0νββ-decay is a challenge for nuclear physics. We are discussing here a model independent method, which could allow to test the calculations. The method is based on the factorization property of the nuclear matrix elements and requires observation of neutrinoless double β-decay of several nuclei.

متن کاملLimits on neutrino masses from neutrinoless double-β decay.
Neutrinoless double-β decay is of fundamental importance for the determining neutrino mass. By combining a calculation of nuclear matrix elements within the framework of the microscopic interacting boson model with an improved calculation of phase space factors, we set limits on the average light neutrino mass and on the average inverse heavy neutrino mass (flavor-violating parameter).

(ββ) 0 ν-decay: a possible test of the nuclear matrix element calculations Abstract The existing calculations of the nuclear matrix elements of the neutrinoless double β-decay differ by about a factor three. This uncertainty prevents quantitative interpretation of the results of experiments searching for this process. We suggest here that the observation of the neutrinoless double β-decay of se...

We analyze the sensitivity of next-generation tonne-scale neutrinoless double β-decay (0νββ) experiments and searches for same-sign di-electrons plus jets at the Large Hadron Collider to TeV scale lepton number violating interactions. Taking into account previously unaccounted for physics and detector backgrounds at the LHC, renormalization group evolution, and long-range contributions to 0νββ ...
