Abstract

Ettore Majorana had shown that, for neutral fermions, Dirac equation can have real solutions. However, whether neutrinos are Dirac or Majorana particles is not yet a settled question. Of the three possible probes of this question, neutrinoless double beta decay is the most explored one. In this talk I will discuss another possible probe, namely decays of neutrinos.
