The theoretical and experimental issues relevant to neutrinoless double-beta decay are reviewed. The impact that a direct observation of this exotic process would have on elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics and cosmology is profound. Now that neutrinos are known to have mass and experiments are becoming more sensitive, even the non-observation of neutrinoless double-beta decay will be useful. If the process is actually observed, we will immediately learn much about the neutrino. The status and discovery potential of proposed experiments are reviewed in this context, with significant emphasis on proposals favored by recent panel reviews. The importance of and challenges in the calculation of nuclear matrix elements that govern the decay are considered in detail. The increasing sensitivity of experiments and improvements in nuclear theory make the future exciting for this field at the interface of nuclear and particle physics.

Ab initio correlations between neutrinoless and two-neutrino double-beta decays in $^{48}$Ca
Ab initio IM-NCCI calculations on 48Ca establish strong linear correlations between 0νββ and 2νββ NMEs across 34 chiral Hamiltonians, yielding a constrained M^{0ν} prediction of 1.30-1.65 after incorporating experimen...
