So how to interpret a discovery or null result of the $$0\nu 2\beta $$ decay in the foreseeable future is highly nontrivial.

Abstract

The Majorana nature of massive neutrinos will be crucially probed in the next-generation experiments of the neutrinoless double-beta ( $$0\nu 2\beta $$ ) decay. The effective mass term of this process, $$\langle m\rangle _{ee}$$ , may be contaminated by new physics. So how to interpret a discovery or null result of the $$0\nu 2\beta $$ decay in the foreseeable future is highly nontrivial. In this paper we introduce a novel three-dimensional description of $$|\langle m\rangle _{ee}|$$ , which allows us to see its sensitivity to the lightest neutrino mass and two Majorana phases in a transparent
