The overall hardness scale of the ultra-high energy neutrino-nucleon interactions is usually estimated as $Q^2\sim m_W^2$. The effect of non-conservation of weak currents pushes this scale up to the top quark mass squared and changes…
We discuss heavy quark contributions to the neutrino-nucleon total cross section at very high energies, well above the real top production threshold. The top-bottom weak current is found to generate strong left-right asymmetry of…
We reconsider the Standard Model interactions of ultra-high energy neutrinos with matter. The next to leading order QCD corrections are presented for charged-current and neutral-current processes. Contrary to popular expectations, these…
Cross sections for the interactions of ultrahigh-energy neutrinos with nucleons are evaluated in light of new information about nucleon structure functions. For $10^{20}$--eV neutrinos, the cross section is about 2.4 times previous…
We show that LSG model predictions of event ratios are clearly distinguished from those of the SM. This is true in all models of ultrahigh energy (UHE) neutrino sources, in both $\nu_e:\nu_{\mu}:\nu_{\tau} = 1:1:1$ and…
Neutrino physics is used as an illustrative example for an elementary introduction to the computational method of Feynman loop-diagrams and decay rates. If the neutrinos are as massive as recently reported by the Super-Kamiokande results,…
A suppression in the spectrum of ultrahigh-energy (UHE, >= 10^{18} eV) neutrinos will be present in extra-dimensional scenarios, due to enhanced neutrino-antineutrino annihilation processes with the supernova relic neutrinos. In the n>4…
Higher twist effects in the deeply inelastic scattering are studied. We start with a short review of the theoretical results on higher twists in QCD. Within the saturation model we perform a twist analysis of the nucleon structure functions…
In the neutrino DIS diffraction the charged current non-conservation gives rise to sizable corrections to the longitudinal structure function, $F_L$. These corrections is a higher twist effect enhanced at small-$x$ by the rapidly growing…
The ultrahigh energy neutrino-nucleon cross sections are computed taking into account different phenomenological implementations of the non-linear QCD dynamic s. Based on the color dipole framework, the results for the saturation model…
Ultra-high energy ($E_\nu>10^8 $ GeV) neutrino-nucleon total cross sections $\sigma^{\nu N}$ are estimated from a soft non-perturbative model complemented by an approximate QCD evolution, explicitly calculated. The resulting asymptotic…
The rise with energy of the neutrino--nucleon cross section implies that at energies above few TeV the Earth is becoming opaque to cosmic neutrinos. The neutrinos interact with the nucleons through the weak charged current, resulting into…
Recent measurement of the structure function $F_2^\nu$ in neutrino deep inelastic scattering allows us to compare structure function measured in neutrino and charged lepton scattering for the first time with reasonable precision. The…
We present state-of-the-art predictions for the ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrino-nucleus cross-sections in charged- and neutral-current scattering. The calculation is performed in the framework of collinear factorisation at NNLO, extended…
We study possible saturation effects in the total cross-section describing interaction of ultrahigh energy neutrinos with nucleons. This analysis is performed within the two approaches, i.e. within the Golec-Biernat W\"usthoff saturation…
We review the phenomenology of ultra-high energy (UHE) neutrino detection. The motivations for looking for such neutrinos stemming from observational evidence and the potential for new physics discoveries are enumerated, and their expected…
The following items are discussed: 1. The lepton U_l(1) symmetry and its relation to the presence of the neutrino mass term in the Hamiltonian. 2. The possibility of the measurement of the neutrino-deuteron reactions with high energy…
Future detection of ultrahigh-energy neutrinos will open a new window on physics at center-of-mass energy 10^5 GeV and higher. In particular, observations of neutrino-initiated showers will help test the Standard Model predictions for the…
The well known charge conjugation violating interactions in the Standard Model increase neutrino- and decrease anti-neutrino- nucleon cross sections. This impacts neutrino transport in core collapse supernovae through "recoil" corrections…
Neutrino Self-Interactions ($\nu$SI) beyond the Standard Model are an attractive possibility to soften cosmological constraints on neutrino properties and also to explain the tension in late and early time measurements of the Hubble…
