A minimal version of the inverse seesaw model featuring only two pairs of TeV-scale singlet neutrinos is discussed from the perspective of non-standard neutrino interactions. A particular attention is paid to the non-standard patterns of…
New interactions with Lorentz scalar structure, arising from physics beyond the standard model of electroweak interactions, will induce effective pseudoscalar interactions after renormalization by weak interaction loop corrections. Such…
Analysis of cosmic microwave background radiation fluctuations favors an effective number of neutrinos, $N_\nu>3$. This motivates a reinvestigation of the neutrino freeze-out process. Here we characterize the dependence of $N_\nu$ on the…
We use the scale of neutrino mass to derive model-independent naturalness constraints on possible contributions to muon decay Michel parameters from new physics above the electroweak symmetry-breaking scale. Focusing on Dirac neutrinos, we…
The Standard Model of electroweak interactions is shown to include a gauge theory for the observed scalar and pseudoscalar mesons. This is done by exploiting the consequences of embedding the SU(2)left X U(1) group into the chiral group of…
New physics contributions to the (anti)neutrino-nucleon elastic scattering process can be constrained by precision measurements, with controlled Standard Model uncertainties. In a large class of new physics models, interactions involving…
We formulate an Effective Field Theory (EFT) for Non Standard neutrino Interactions (NSI) in elastic scattering with light quarks, leptons, gluons and photons, including all possible operators of dimension 5, 6 and 7. We provide the…

We compute bounds on coefficients of effective operators in the Standard Model that can be inferred from observations of neutrino scattering by the COHERENT experiment. While many operators are bound extremely well by past experiments the…
We consider lepton-neutron (and lepton-antineutron) bound states and resonances which appear due to spin-spin, spin-orbital interactions,neutron polarization by muon. Our analis is also true for any system which include one charge and one…
The recent measurements of the Michel parameters in tau decays enable, for the first time, a thorough analysis of the leptonic sector. In general, in models beyond the Standard Model, these parameters will be altered through changes in the…
Leptons, quarks and gauge bosons are assumed to be described by local field theory. Stringent bounds on nonlocal scale can be derived from the high- presision LEP measurements. We find a bound on nonlocal scale $\Lambda_{nl} > 1020\: Gev$,…
We conjecture that the neutrino mixing matrix must be such that in the flavour oscillation process the energy expectation values enjoy flavour independence. Based on this conjecture we present unitarity and energy conservation constraints…
By adding a neutrino mass term to the Standard Model, which is Lorentz and $SU(2)\times U(1)$ invariant but non-local to evade $CPT$ theorem, it is shown that non-locality within a distance scale of the Planck length, that may not be fatal…
We explore the potential of several Neutrino Factory (NF) setups to constrain, discover and measure new physics effects due to Non-Standard Interactions (NSI) in propagation through Earth matter. We first study the impact of NSI in the…
We discuss the role of the effective interactions among four matter fermions in supersymmetric models with a very light gravitino. We show that, from a field-theoretical viewpoint, no model-independent bound on the gravitino mass can be…
A connection between the neutrino and an exotic fermion is described in the general neutrino model. In this model the neutrinos can convert into the new fermion and thus the interaction leads to novel recoil spectrum in the neutrino…
Nonrenormalizable scalar fields, such as \varphi^4_n, n\ge5, require infinitely many distinct counter terms when perturbed about the free theory, and lead to free theories when defined as the continuum limit of a lattice regularized theory…
We consider extensions of the Standard Model by vectorlike leptons and set limits on a new charged lepton, $e_4^\pm$, using the ATLAS search for anomalous production of multi-lepton events. It is assumed that only one Standard Model lepton,…
The effective interactions which violate a lepton flavor accompanied with neutrinos (nLFV) are considered. Such a new physics effect is expected to be measured in future neutrino oscillation experiments with long baseline. They are induced…
