Abstract: In the Standard Model (SM), lepton-number conservation holds in low-energy collisions and decays, but it can be violated in high-energy or high-density interactions. The observation of neutrino oscillations indicates that neutrinos have mass and, if the neutrinos are of the Majorana type, the neutrino and antineutrino are the same particle and processes that involve lepton-number violation become possible. Many models beyond the SM predict that the lepton number is violated, possibly at rates approaching those accessible with current data. Lepton-number violation is also a necessary condition for leptogenesis as an explanation of the baryon asymmetry of the Universe.
