Description
We discuss models that can feature $n-\bar n$ oscillations at observable
levels. These are extra-dimensional theories with Standard-Model fermions
propagating in the extra dimensions. Interestingly, while proton decay can
be suppressed well below experimental limits in these models, $n-\bar n$
oscillations can occur at levels comparable to current limits. Thus,
in these theories, $n-\bar n$ oscillations and the associated $\Delta B=-2$
dinucleon decays can be the dominant manfestation of baryon-number violation.
Analyses are given within the context of a Standard-Model effective field
theory and a theory involving a left-right symmetry group.
