We deepen the study of the so-called ``silver channel'' $\nu_e \to \nu_\tau$ \cite{Donini:2002rm} and of its relevance to solve some of the ambiguities that can arise in the simultaneous measurement of $(\theta_{13},\delta)$ at the Neutrino…

Sensitivity of a neutrino factory to various mixing angles in a scheme with one sterile neutrino is studied using $\nu_e\to\nu_\mu$, $\nu_\mu\to\nu_\mu$, $\nu_e\to\nu_\tau$ and $\nu_\mu\to\nu_\tau$. While the "discovery-channel"…
We investigate non-standard interaction effects in antineutrino-electron scattering experiments with baselines short enough to ignore standard oscillation phenomena. The setup is free of ambiguities from the interference between new physics…
