Partial restoration of isospin symmetry for neutrinoless double beta decay in the deformed nuclear system of $^{150}$Nd

In this work, we calculate the matrix elements of $0νββ$-decay of $^{150}$Nd with the deformed pn-QRPA method. We adopted the approach introduced by Rodin, Faessler [Phys. Rev. C84, 014322 (2011)] and Simkovic {\it et. al.} [Phys. Rev. C87,045501(2013)] to restore the isospin symmetry by enforcing $M^{2ν}_F=0$. We found that with this restoration, the Fermi matrix elements are reduced by about 30\% while the more important Gamow-Teller matrix elements remains the same. The results of an enlarged model space is also presented, which changes the matrix elements by less than 10\%.
