Weak-interaction and nuclear-structure aspects of nuclear double beta decay

TL;DR: In this article, decay rates for the two-neutrino and neutrinoless modes of the nuclear double beta decay transitions are defined and second-order perturbative expressions for the nuclear decay amplitudes are given.

Theory of neutrinoless double-beta decay.

TL;DR: It is shown that it is possible to disentangle the various mechanisms and unambiguously extract the important neutrino-mass scale, if all the signatures of the reaction are searched for in a sufficient number of nuclear isotopes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Double beta decay

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the recent developments in the field of nuclear double beta decay, which is presently an important topic in both nuclear and particle physics, and the role of the Pauli exclusion principle for a correct treatment of nuclear matrix elements is emphasized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neutrinoless double beta decay and neutrino mass

TL;DR: In this article, the light neutrino mass mechanism is discussed and the question of quenching of the axial vector coupling constant is examined, which may have important consequences on the size of the NMEs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tables of double beta decay data

TL;DR: In this article, a compilation of data on double beta decay is presented, which contains the most stringent known experimental limits or positive results on half-lives for 2β transitions to ground and excited states of daughter nuclei for different channels (2β−, 2β+, ϵβ+; 2ϵ) and modes (0ν, 2ν, 0νM) of decay.

Double beta Decay and Majorana Neutrino

TL;DR: In this paper, it is shown why the Dirac neutrino has a freedom of phase transformation to guarantee the lepton number conservation, while the Majorana neutrinos do not.

Suppression of the two-neutrino double-beta decay by nuclear-structure effects

TL;DR: The nuclear matrix element for 2ν double-beta decay is calculated within the quasiparticle random-phase approximation and it is shown that the decay matrix element passes through zero as a function of the strength gpp of the particle-particle component of the spin-isospin polarization force.

Two Nucleon Forces and Nuclear Matter

TL;DR: In this paper, an explicit boson-exchange model for the nucleon-nucleon interaction including the δ-isobar is presented, and results for NN-scattering, the deuteron and nuclear matter.
