Description

Recent advances in the theory of 0νββ decay are briefly discussed. A complete list of nuclear matrix elements within the framework of the Interacting Boson Model (IBM-2) is given. Results of a novel calculation of phase space factors with exact Dirac wave functions and electron screening are also presented.
