Two leading non-interfering Mechanisms: Light Majorana and Heavy R Neutrino i = different nuclei, e.g. 76Ge, 100Mo, 130Te; |h|2 > 0 and our matrix element for gA = 1.25 Due to ratios only minimal changes for gA=1.00 Amand Faessler, Tuebingen
Two interfering Mechanisms: Light Majorana and Heavy Left Neutrino Three different transitions needed, e.g. 76Ge, 100Mo, 130Te, to determine the three parameters. Amand Faessler, Tuebingen

1) Summary Comparing four different approaches for the 0nbb matrix elements: • Shell model only small basis; violates the Ikeda sum rule by 50 to 60%. • Interacting boson Model: only s (0+) and d (2+) pairs. • Projected Hartee Fock Bogoliubov: Only 0+ pairs. • QRPA large basis; fulfils Ikeda sum rule; realistic forces.

3) Summary Search for the Leading Mechanism • One Leading Mechanism: Determine the h1(mn ?) in two systems. Is it the same? • Two leading non-interfering mechanisms: Determine h1 and h2in three systems • Two interfering mechanisms: Determine h1, h2and the relative phase theta in three nuclei and verify it in three nuclei with at least one other.
