“…There is evidence from two-neutrino double beta decays that 𝑔 𝐴 as measured in two neutrino decays may be different by a large factor, relative to neutron decay, and this introduces a comparable degree of uncertainty into the predicted rate of [32] 0𝜈𝛽𝛽 to other aspects of the matrix element calculation. This situation is rapidly evolving, for a relatively modern discussion see Ref [22].…”

Neutrinoless double beta decay is a hypothetical radioactive process which, if observed, would prove the neutrino to be a Majorana fermion: a particle that is its own antiparticle. In this lecture mini-series I discuss the physics of Majorana fermions and the connection between the nature of neutrino mass and neutrinoless double beta decay. We review Dirac and Majorana spinors, discuss methods of distinguishing between Majorana and Dirac fermions, and derive in outline the connection between neutrino mass and double beta decay rates. We conclude by briefly summarizing the experimental landscape and the challenges associated with searches for this elusive process.
