Description

Seventy years have elapsed since Majorana's bold hypothesis about the neutrinos, and almost the same time since he dissappeared in misterious circunstances, a mistery yet as unresolved as the true nature of Neutrino. Probably we will never know what happened to the physicist but neutrinoless double deta decay experiments may unravel if the neutrino is its own antiparticle. I will offer a brief review of the satus of the field and the most promising techniques for the NEXT generation of experiments.
