A simple model of neutrinoless double beta decay

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento A (1965-1970)

Summary

By modifying the properties of the neutrino, we formulate a simple model of effective weak interactions, which allows the neutrinoless double beta decay. The estimated upper bound for the neutrino mass is of the order of 10 eV.

Riassunto

Modificando le proprietà del neutrino, si formula un modello semplice di interazioni deboli efficaci, che ammette il doppio decadimento beta senza neutrini. Il limite superiore per la massa del neutrino è dell'ordine di 10eV.
