Process mediated by the weak interaction which occurs in those even-even nuclei where
the single beta decay is energetically forbidden.

• Conserves the leptonic number• Compatible with massive or massless Dirac/Majorana neutrinos• Experimentally observed (T1/2~1019-21 y)• Within the Standard Model
• Violates the leptonic number conservation• Neutrinos are massive Majorana particles • Experimentally not observed (yet?) (T1/2 >1025 y)• Beyond the Standard Model

• Each term can be written as the expectation value of a transition operator acting on the initial al final states:

• Nuclear structure methods for calculating these NME:
• Quasiparticle Random Phase Approximation in different versions: QRPA, RQRPA, SRQRPA. (Tübingen group, Jyüvaskylä group)
• Interacting Shell Model -ISM- (Strasbourg-Madrid collaboration, Michigan)
• Interacting Boson Model -IBM- (Yale group)
• Projected Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov -PHFB- (Lucknow-UNAM group)

• Interacting Boson Model -IBM- (Yale group)
• Projected Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov -PHFB- (Lucknow-UNAM group)
Different ways to deal with: - Finding the best initial and final ground states. - Handling the transition operator (inclusion of most relevant terms, corrections, approximations, etc.).
Some remarks about these methods: - Calculations with limited single particle bases. - Interactions fitted to the specific region (ISM) or to each nucleus individually (rest). - Difficulties to include collective degrees of freedom. - Problems with particle number conservation.

Method: GCM+PNAMP
• Effective nucleon-nucleon interaction: Gogny force (D1S-D1M) that is able to describe properly many phenomena along the whole nuclear chart.
First step: Particle Number Projection (before the variation) of HFB-type wave functions.
• Method of solving the many-body problem:
Second step: Simultaneous Particle Number and Angular Momentum Projection (after the variation).
Third step: Configuration mixing within the framework of the Generator Coordinate Method (GCM).

- Higher values than the ones predicted by ISM calculations (larger valence space, lower seniority components). - For A=76, 82, 128, 150 we predict smaller values than the ones given by QRPA and/or IBM while for A=96, 100, 116, 124, 130, 136 larger values are obtained.- Consistent results with the rest of the models. Notice that we are using the same interaction for all the nuclei.- Further studies are needed to understand what is missing in the different models.

2. Method: GCM+PNAMP 3. Results: GCM+PNAMP 1. Introduction 4. Summary and Conclusions
Tomás R. RodríguezRecent advances in neutrinoless double beta decay with EDFStrasbourg, October 2012
• Energy density functional methods allow the inclusion of deformation of the initial and final states in the calculation of NME for neutrinoless double beta decay and double electron capture.
• Equal deformation of initial and final states is favored by the transition operator. Spherical configurations are more favored than deformed ones.
• NME values are strongly correlated to the pairing energies of initial and final states.
• NMEs are much larger for the double beta decay candidates than for double electron capture ones (deformation).
Summary and conclusions2. Method: GCM+PNAMP 3. Results: GCM+PNAMP 1. Introduction 4. Summary and Conclusions
Tomás R. RodríguezRecent advances in neutrinoless double beta decay with EDFStrasbourg, October 2012
• Calculations in the pf-shell.
• Other degrees of freedom should be also explored (pairing vibrations, octupole deformations, triaxiality, explicit quasiparticle excitations...)
• Isospin symmetry breaking and restoration.
• Occupation numbers.
