This is a pedagogical overview of neutrino physics from the invention of neutrino by Pauli in 1930 to the precise measurement of neutrino mass and mixing parameters via neutrino oscillation experiments in recent years. I have tried to pitch…
This article reviews the many new results from neutrino oscillation searches which were presented at ICHEP '98. Exciting indications of neutrino oscillations have been seen in the solar neutrino deficit, atmospheric neutrino deficit and…
A review is presented of the antinucleon-nucleon interaction, and some related issues such as fundamental symmetries, annihilation mechanisms, antinucleon-nucleus scattering, antiprotonic atoms and neutron-antineutron oscillations. The…
The next generation of neutrino oscillation experiments aims to answer many interesting questions, such as whether there is CP violation in the neutrino sector and whether sterile neutrinos exist. These experiments will require high…
Do neutrinos have nonzero masses? If they do, then these masses are very tiny, and can be sought only in very sensitive experiments. The most sensitive of these search for neutrino oscillation, a quantum interference effect which requires…
These lecture notes recall the conceptual developments which led from the discovery of the neutron to our present understanding of strong interaction physics.
We present a phenomenological study of nuclear effects in neutrino charged-current interactions, using transverse kinematic imbalances in exclusive measurements. Novel observables with minimal dependence on neutrino energy are proposed to…
This review is focused on neutrino mixing and neutrino oscillations in the light of the recent experimental developments. After discussing possible types of neutrino mixing for Dirac and Majorana neutrinos and considering in detail the…
After some generalities on neutrino oscillations and on neutrinos, the recent experimental results presented by Soudan 2, MACRO and SuperKamiokande at the Neutrino'98 conference are summarized and discussed.
This writeup is an introduction to neutrino astronomy, addressed to astronomers and written by astroparticle physicists. While the focus is on achievements and goals in neutrino astronomy, rather than on the aspects connected to particle…
From several neutrino oscillation experiments, we understand now that neutrinos have mass. However, we really don't know what mechanism is responsible for producing this neutrino mass. Current or planned neutrino experiments utilize…
Neutrino oscillations physics is entered in the precision era. In this context accelerator-based neutrino experiments need a reduction of systematic errors to the level of a few percent. Today one of the most important sources of systematic…
A brief description of the path-breaking evidence for the observation of neutrino oscillations at the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory is presented and the experimental principles and theory thereof are briefly discussed.
Measuring the unknown neutrino oscillation parameters is one of the main aims in neutrino physics today. The measurement of these parameters is severely affected by the presence of degeneracies in the parameter space. Various neutrino…
I review the basics of neutrino cosmology, from the question of neutrino decoupling and the presence of sterile neutrinos to the effects of neutrinos on the cosmic microwave background and large scale structure. Particular emphasis is put…
In this talk, I give an overview on recent theoretical and phenomenological studies of massive neutrinos. First of all, the present status of neutrino mixing parameters is summarized. The phenomenology of neutrino oscillations is then…
The interplay between cosmology and earth based experiments is crucial in order to pin down neutrino physics. Indeed cosmology can provide very tight, yet model dependent, constraints on some neutrino properties. Here we focus on the…
This manuscript is a shorthand version of my talk given at Odessa Gamov School on Astronomy, Cosmology and Beyond (22-28 August 2011, Odessa, Ukraine). Within this note we very briefly review the main achievements, new results and open…
I concentrate on two topics. One is techniques to distinguish amongst various oscillation scenarios from atmospheric neutrino data; and the other is the Borexino solar neutrino detector and its capabilities.
In most of the proposals for new physics beyond the standard model, neutrinos have new interactions and some of them have phenomenological consequences that, although at present they may seem purely academic, probably will have to be taken…
