==================================================
Dear Colleagues,

The international workshop on the theoretical and experimental approaches for nuclear
matrix elements of double-β decay will be held on December 21 and 22, 2023 at the Research
Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP), Osaka University, Japan.
The discovery of the neutrinoless double-β (0vbb) decay gives the proof of the existence of
a Majorana neutrino, which is a decisive clue to solving the mystery of the birth of the
matter-prevailing universe. The 0vbb decay is also quite important for determining the
ordering structure of the neutrino eigen masses. In the recent future plans for the 0vbb
decay experiments, the searches for the decay in the inverted ordering region (the mass of
10-20 meV) and the normal ordering region (the mass of several meV) are proposed. The
prediction of the nuclear matrix element (NME) is necessary for determining the effective
neutrino mass from the measured half-life of the decay. This is a challenging task for
theoretical nuclear physics because the  0vbb  decay is a qualitatively unprecedented and
extremely rare phenomenon. Currently, the calculated NMEs are distributed in a broad ratio
range of 2?3.
The aim of this workshop is to improve the accuracy of the theoretical NME calculation.
Close cooperation between the experimentalists and the theorists is necessary to achieve
this aim. A question is what measurements can be important inputs to the NME calculation.
The discussions are expected on the requests and suggestions for new experimental
measurements.
The discussion will also be made on the measurement results of the phenomena related to
the  0vbb decay as the precise measurement of the half-life of the  2vbb decay, the double
Gamow-Teller transition strength using the double-charge exchange reaction, and other
physical quantities for obtaining important insight through the measurements of the nuclear
reactions using accelerators.
