abstract

The Bayesian discovery probability of future experiments searching for neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay is evaluated under the popular assumption that neutrinos are their own antiparticles. A Bayesian global fit is performed to construct a probability distribution for the effective Majorana mass, the observable of interest for these experiments. This probability distribution is then combined with the sensitivity of each experiment derived from a heuristic counting analysis. The discovery probability is found to be higher than previously considered, but strongly depends on whether the neutrino mass ordering is normal or inverted. For the inverted ordering, next-generation experiments are likely to observe a signal already during their first operational stages. Even for the normal ordering, in the absence of neutrino mass mechanisms that drive the lightest state or the effective Majorana mass to zero, the probability of discovering neutrinoless double-$\beta$ decay can reach $\sim$50% or more in the most promising experiments.

  1. Neutrino-less double beta decay in the $\nu$ Standard Model

    hep-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    A comprehensive scan of the 3+3 Type-I seesaw model finds that current and next-generation neutrinoless double beta decay experiments have broad discovery potential in both normal and inverted neutrino mass ordering.

  2. Towards the meV limit of the effective neutrino mass in neutrinoless double-beta decays

    hep-ph 2019-08 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    Neutrinoless double-beta decay at 1 meV sensitivity would constrain the lightest neutrino mass to 0.7 to 8 meV and the Majorana phase rho to 130 to 230 degrees.

  3. Flavoured leptogenesis and ${\rm CP}^{\mu\tau}$ symmetry

    hep-ph 2019-08 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    In CPmu-tau symmetric seesaw models, flavoured leptogenesis works with M2/M1 as low as 4.7, lowering the old lower bound on M1 to about 7.5e9 GeV and allowing N2-dominated scenarios in roughly a quarter of the paramet...

  4. CUPID pre-CDR

    physics.ins-det 2019-07 unverdicted novelty 4.0 of 10

    CUPID proposes a large bolometric detector array with alpha/beta discrimination to achieve a background-free search for 0νββ decay in 100Mo and probe the inverted neutrino mass hierarchy.
