Abstract
A new economical model for neutrino masses is proposed in the context of th
e brane-bulk scenarios for particle physics, where the global B-L symmetry
of the standard model is broken spontaneously by a gauge singlet Higgs fiel
d in the bulk. This leads to a bulk singlet majoron whose Kaluza-Klein exci
tations may make it visible in neutrinoless double beta decay for some para
meter range if the string scale is close to a TeV. (C) 2000 Published by El
