The physics responsible for neutrino mass may reside at or below the TeV energy scale. The neutrino mass matrix in the $(\nu_e, \nu_\mu, \nu_\tau)$ basis may then be deduced from future high-energy accelerator experiments. The newly…
The current experimental status of neutrino physics is reviewed. It contains the evidences for a non-vanishing neutrino rest mass from neutrino oscillation searches. In addition an outlook is given on determining the various mixing matrix…
The latest cosmological constraints on the sum of the neutrino masses depend on prior physical assumptions about the mass spectrum. To test the accordance of cosmological and laboratory constraints in the absence of such priors, we…
We study a consistent explanation for both deficits of solar neutrino and atmospheric neutrino due to the neutrino oscillation induced by the mixing of light neutrinos with a heavy right-handed neutrino. We propose such a phenomenological…
We briefly summarise the current status of neutrino masses and mixing, paying special attention to the prospects for observing new leptonic interactions.
We have obtained a new limit on the electron neutrino effective charge radius from a new evaluation of the weak mixing angle by a combined fit of all electron-(anti)neutrino electron elastic scattering measurements. Weak mixing angle is…
Precision probes of new physics are often interpreted through their indirect sensitivity to short-distance scales. In this proceedings contribution, we focus on the question of which precision observables, at current sensitivity levels,…
Neutrino oscillation parameters can be understood in a better way by building a more complete picture of neutrino interactions. This poses a series of important theoretical and experimental challenges because of the elusive nature of…
A new option of parameter constraint is described for the recently proposed neutrino mass formula involving primarily three free parameters. The option implies the vanishing of a part of mass formula for the lowest mass neutrino, the part…
We report the results of the second measurement campaign of the Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino (KATRIN) experiment. KATRIN probes the effective electron anti-neutrino mass, $m_{\nu}$, via a high-precision measurement of the tritium…
The study of neutrino interactions has recently experienced a renaissance, motivated by the fact that neutrino oscillation experiments depend critically on an accurate models of neutrino interactions. These models have to predict not only…
We propose a method to measure the neutrino mass kinematically using beams of ions which undergo beta decay. The idea is to tune the ion beam momentum so that in most decays, the electron is forward moving with respect to the beam, and only…
Neutrino oscillation and tritium beta decay experiments taken simultaneously into account are able to access the so far imperceptible absolute neutrino masses at the electronvolt level. The neutrino mass spectrum derived in this way is…
Neutrinos, being elusive subatomic particles having only weak interactions, provide an ideal platform to look for physics beyond the Standard Model. In the present era of neutrino physics, various experiments are focusing towards the…
The problem of an active neutrinos mass origin is considered at the phenomenological level. At first an assumption is made that neutrino mass values depend on two contributions with their characteristic scales, a next assumption consists in…
With the compelling evidence for massive neutrinos from recent neutrino-oscillation experiments, one of the most fundamental tasks of particle physics over the next years will be the determination of the absolute mass scale of neutrinos.…
With the recent experimental advance in our precise knowledge of the neutrino oscillation parameters, the correct form of the 3 X 3 neutrino mass matrix is now approximately known. I discuss how this may be obtained from symmetry…
If the origin of neutrino mass is at the TeV energy scale, collider experiments may in fact {\it map out} all the elements of the $3 \times 3$ neutrino mass matrix, up to an overall scale. Two examples \cite{mrs,ma01} are discussed and one…
A new model for neutrino oscillations is introduced, in which mass-like behavior is seen at high energies, but various behavior can be predicted at low energies. The model employs no neutrino masses, but instead relies on the…
We emphasize that a muon based neutrino factory could show the existence of light right-handed neutrinos, if a deficit in the number of detected events is observed at a near detector. This could be as large as ~10% if the size of the new…
