description

Systematics of the nuclear matrix elements related to the neutrinoless double beta ( 0 ν β β ) decay are discussed. The calculation of the related nuclear matrix elements in the framework of the proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phase approximation (pnQRPA) is analyzed. In particular, the extraction of a proper value of the proton-neutron particle-particle interaction parameter in this theory is addressed. The relevance of different multipoles in the multipole decomposition of the 0 ν β β matrix element is also discussed.
