We consider effects of $n-\bar n$ oscillations and resultant matter instability due to dinucleons decays. We point out that existing upper bounds on the rates for the dinucleon decays $nn \to 2\pi^0$, $nn \to \pi^+\pi^-$, and $np \to \pi^+\pi^0$ imply upper bounds on the rates for dinucleon decays to dileptons $nn \to e^+ e^-$, $nn \to \mu^+\mu^-$, $nn \to \nu_\ell \bar\nu_\ell$, and $np \to \ell^+ \nu_\ell$, where $\ell=e, \ \mu, \ \tau$. We present estimates for these upper bounds. Our bounds are substantially stronger than corresponding limits from direct searches.

  1. EFT Pathways to $|\Delta B| =2$: Chiral Constructions and Phenomenology

    hep-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    A chiral EFT framework is constructed for |ΔB|=2 interactions that matches SMEFT operators to low-energy baryon processes and identifies new dinucleon decay channels sensitive to previously unconstrained operator structures.

  2. New Avenues for $|\Delta B|$ = 2 Processes Beyond Neutron-Antineutron Oscillations

    hep-ph 2025-11 conditional novelty 5.0

    Lambda-antilambda oscillations are already bounded far more strongly by Super-Kamiokande's pp→K+K+ limit (δmΛ ≲ 10^-32 GeV) than by BESIII's direct search, making dedicated oscillation searches non-competitive in the ...

  3. Neutrino Mass Induced $n$-$\overline{n}$ Oscillation

    hep-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 4.0

    In the Georgi-Glashow SU(5) theory, generating a Majorana neutrino mass necessarily produces neutron–antineutron oscillation from the same operator.
