Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay - Lecture 2

Explore the intricacies of neutrinoless double beta decay in this second lecture by Michelle Dolinski, part of the "Understanding the Universe Through Neutrinos" program at the International Centre for Theoretical Sciences. Delve into this advanced topic in neutrino physics, which could potentially reveal whether neutrinos are their own antiparticles (Majorana particles). Learn about the experimental techniques, challenges, and latest results in the search for this rare nuclear process. Gain insights into how neutrinoless double beta decay experiments contribute to our understanding of neutrino properties, mass hierarchy, and beyond-Standard Model physics. This hour-long lecture is suitable for graduate students and researchers looking to deepen their knowledge in this cutting-edge area of particle physics and its implications for our understanding of the universe.
