In particular, in this work we study the decay of a Majorana neutrino with interactions obtained from an effective general theory modeling new physics at the scale Λ. The results obtained are general because they are based in an effective theory and not in specific models. We are interested in relatively light-heavy Majorana neutrinos, with masses lower than the W mass (mN
