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.

Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis to probe trilinear $R$-parity violating SUSY scenarios and possible LHC signatures
A Bayesian MCMC fit to neutrino, Higgs, and flavor data constrains the trilinear R-parity-violating couplings λ_i33 and λ'_i33 to at most ~10^-4, with tanβ below 15, in bino- and stop-LSP supersymmetric scenarios.

Sterile neutrino Dark Matter in the minimal Dirac Seesaw
A minimal Dirac seesaw model yields viable sterile-neutrino dark matter via freeze-in, with the right-handed mixing angle θ_R bypassing X-ray bounds.

Axion framework with color-mediated Dirac neutrino masses
A KSVZ-type axion framework generates Dirac neutrino masses through colored vector-like quarks and leptoquarks, linking neutrino mass, strong CP, and dark matter.
