Neutrinoless double beta decay: 2015 review

S Dell'Oro, S Marcocci, M Viel… - Advances in High Energy …, 2016 - Wiley Online Library

importance of neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ). In this paper, we review the main …

Massive neutrinos and cosmology

J Lesgourgues, S Pastor - Physics Reports, 2006 - Elsevier
The present experimental results on neutrino flavour oscillations provide evidence for non-
zero neutrino masses, but give no hint on their absolute mass scale, which is the target of …

The present and future status of heavy neutral leptons

AM Abdullahi, PB Alzás, B Batell… - Journal of Physics G …, 2023 - iopscience.iop.org
The existence of nonzero neutrino masses points to the likely existence of multiple Standard
Model neutral fermions. When such states are heavy enough that they cannot be produced …

The first three seconds: a review of possible expansion histories of the early universe

R Allahverdi, MA Amin, A Berlin, N Bernal… - arxiv preprint arxiv …, 2020 - arxiv.org
It is commonly assumed that the energy density of the Universe was dominated by radiation
between reheating after inflation and the onset of matter domination 54,000 years later …

Neutrinos and collider physics

FF Deppisch, PSB Dev, A Pilaftsis - New Journal of Physics, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
We review the collider phenomenology of neutrino physics and the synergetic aspects at
energy, intensity and cosmic frontiers to test the new physics behind the neutrino mass …

The search for heavy Majorana neutrinos

A Atre, T Han, S Pascoli, B Zhang - Journal of High Energy …, 2009 - iopscience.iop.org
The Majorana nature of neutrinos can be experimentally verified only via lepton-number
violating processes involving charged leptons. We study 36 lepton-number violating (LV) …

Relic neutrino decoupling including flavour oscillations

G Mangano, G Miele, S Pastor, T Pinto, O Pisanti… - Nuclear Physics B, 2005 - Elsevier
In the early universe, neutrinos are slightly coupled when electron–positron pairs annihilate
transferring their entropy to photons. This process originates non-thermal distortions on the …

Neutrinoless double beta decay versus other probes of heavy sterile neutrinos
