Neutrinoless double beta decay: Present and future
Abstract
Present status, and future plans for Double Beta Decay searches are reviewed. Given the recent observations of neutrino oscillations, a possibility to observe ββ(0ν) at a neutrino mass scale suggested by present experimental results ( mη ≈ 10-50 meV) could actually exist. The achievement of the required experimental sensitivity is a real challenge faced by a series of new proposed projects. Plans to achieve such a result are described.
