Neutrinoless Double-Beta Decay: Status and Prospects
read the original abstract
Neutrinoless double-beta decay is a forbidden, lepton-number-violating nuclear transition whose observation would have fundamental implications for neutrino physics, theories beyond the Standard Model and cosmology. In this review, we summarize the theoretical progress to understand this process, the expectations and implications under various particle physics models, as well as the nuclear physics challenges that affect the precise predictions of the decay half-life. We will also provide a synopsis of the current and future large-scale experiments that aim at discovering this process in physically well-motivated half-life ranges.

Cosmic Collider Gravitational Waves sourced by Right-handed Neutrino production from Bubbles: Testing Seesaw, Leptogenesis and Dark Matter
Bubble collisions in a seesaw model produce right-handed neutrinos that source novel gravitational waves detectable by LISA, ET, and LVK while allowing the lightest RHN to explain dark matter or enable leptogenesis.

Challenging chiral EFT with tritium beta decay
Chiral EFT predictions at N2LO for the tritium Gamow-Teller matrix element, with parameters fixed from scattering, overestimate the empirical value and indicate large higher-order corrections.

Maximal Abelian Flavor Symmetries
MAFS describes 15 flavor observables in SU(5) and SO(10) GUTs using 5 or 3 fitted small parameters at factor-of-two accuracy, implying large neutrino mixings and approximate leptogenesis without extra parameters in SU(5).

Maximal Abelian Flavor Symmetries
MAFS approximates 15 flavor observables in SU(5) using 5 ε_a parameters and in SO(10) using 3, while requiring large neutrino mixing from quark hierarchies and generating baryon asymmetry via leptogenesis.
