Description
I discuss recent and imminent progress in the computation of the nuclear matrix elements that govern neutrinoless double-beta decay. Lattice QCD, effective field theory, and ab initio nuclear structure all play a role in those computations. Bayesian model mixing promises to produce a reliable uncertainty estimate for the computed matrix elements.
