Searches for neutrinoless double beta decay

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

Neutrinoless double beta decay is a lepton number violating process whose observation would also establish that neutrinos are their own anti-particles. There are many experimental efforts with a variety of techniques. Some (EXO, Kamland-Zen, GERDA phase I and CANDLES) started take data in 2011 and EXO has reported the first measurement of the half life for the double beta decay with two neutrinos of 136^{136}Xe. The sensitivities of the different proposals are reviewed.
