Impact of the leading-order short-range nuclear matrix element on the neutrinoless double-beta decay of medium-mass and heavy nuclei

We evaluate the leading-order short-range nuclear matrix element for the neutrinoless double-beta (0νββ) decay of the nuclei most relevant for experiments, including 76Ge, 100Mo, 130Te and 136Xe. In our calculations, performed with the nuclear shell model and proton-neutron quasiparticle random-phas...
