Neutrinoless double beta decay in chiral effective field theory: lepton number violation at dimension seven
Abstract We analyze neutrinoless double beta decay (0νββ) within the framework of the Standard Model Effective Field Theory. Apart from the dimension-five Weinberg operator, the first contributions appear at dimension seven. We classify the operators and evolve them to the electroweak scale, where w...
