Constraints on Heavy Neutrino and SUSY Parameters Derived from the Study of Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay by Andrei Neacsu, Sabin Stoica

“…For derivation, we use new values of both phase space factors (PSFs) and nuclear matrix elements (NMEs) calculated with numerical codes developed recently, as well as the most recent experimental lifetimes. The NMEs are computed with a shell model (ShM) code for  48Ca,  76Ge, and  82Se nuclei, while at present similar ShM results are available only for the first nucleus. …”
