A study on the possibility of distinguishing new heavy Majorana neutrino models at LHC energies is presented. The experimental confirmation of standard neutrinos with non-zero mass and the theoretical possibility of lepton number violation…
Searches for neutrino magnetic moments/transitions in low energy neutrino scattering experiments are sensitive to effective couplings which are an intricate function of the Hamiltonian parameters. We study the parameter space dependence of…
In this brief review, I discuss the new physics unveiled by neutrino oscillation experiments over the past several years, and discuss several attempts at understanding the mechanism behind neutrino masses and lepton mixing. It is fair to…
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…
Modern-day accelerator neutrino facilities are excellent venues for searches for new-physics particles. Many distinct new-physics models predict overlapping signatures and phenomenology in these experiments. In this work, we advocate for…
Heavy Neutral Leptons (HNLs) with masses $\mathcal{O}(0.1 - 1\,\,\text{GeV}/c^{2})$ are promising candidates for the simultaneous explanation of the smallness of the observed neutrino masses as well as the matter-antimatter asymmetry in the…
The central role of neutrinos in the determination of fundamental interactions is reviewed. The recent SuperKamiokande discovery of neutrino mass gives an {\it aper\c cu} of physics at short distances, and tests theories of flavor.…
Neutrinos are likely the most poorly understood basic constituents of the Standard Model. In order to investigate precisely their interactions one should be able to create high intensity and well-collimated neutrino beams with known flavor…
The precise measurement of neutrino properties is among the highest priorities in fundamental particle physics, involving many experiments worldwide. Since the experiments rely on the interactions of neutrinos with bound nucleons inside…
In recent years, a number of intensity-frontier experiments have been proposed to search for feebly interacting particles with a mass in the GeV range. We show analytically how the characteristic shape of the sensitivity regions of such…
We propose a new strategy to probe heavy neutrinos with non-universal fermion couplings at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) using a novel production mechanism and machine-learning algorithms. Focusing on proton--proton collisions at…
We investigate the potential to probe new neutrino physics with future experiments measuring coherent neutrino-nucleus scattering. Experiments with high statistics should become feasible soon and allow to constrain parameters with…
The Majorana nature of neutrinos is strongly motivated from the theoretical and phenomenological point of view. A plethora of neutrino mass models, known collectively as Seesaw models, exist that could generate both a viable neutrino mass…
This paper aims at solving several open questions in current neutrino physics: the neutrino mass hierarchy, the Dirac CP-violating phase, the absolute mass of neutrinos, the nature of neutrinos (Dirac or Majorana), the Majorana matrix, and…
Accelerator-based neutrino oscillation experiments have the potential to revolutionise our understanding of fundamental physics, offering an opportunity to characterise charge-parity violation in the lepton section, to determine the…
Majorana neutrinos naturally lead to a Lepton Number Violation (LNV). A superposition of Majorana states can mimic Dirac-type neutrinos, leading to its conservation (LNC). We demonstrate on the example of specific observables related to…
The fundamental properties of the lepton sector include the neutrino masses and flavor mixings. Both are difficult to observe because of the extremely small neutrino masses and neutrino-matter cross sections. In these lectures, we focus on…
We discuss the current status and future prospects of heavy neutrino searches at the energy frontier, which might play an important role in vindicating the simplest seesaw paradigm as the new physics responsible for neutrino mass…
The compelling experimental evidences for oscillations of solar, reactor, atmospheric and accelerator neutrinos imply the existence of 3-neutrino mixing in the weak charged lepton current. The current data on the 3-neutrino mixing…
High energy physics aims to understand the fundamental laws of particles and their interactions at both the largest and smallest scales of the universe. This typically means probing very high energies or large distances or using…
