Constraining non standard neutrino interactions
نویسنده
چکیده
Non-standard interactions (NSI) arise naturally when considering physics beyond the Standard Model. In particular, they can have an important influence in the solar neutrino analysis. The current status of NSI constraints will be discussed and the perspectives of future neutrino experiments will be briefly outlined.

Neutrino Properties Before and After KamLAND
We review neutrino oscillation physics, including the determination of mass splittings and mixings from current solar, atmospheric, reactor and accelerator neutrino data. A brief discussion is given of cosmological and astrophysical implications. Non-oscillation phenomena such as neutrinoless double beta decay would, if discovered, probe the absolute scale of neutrino mass and also reveal their...
متن کاملProbing neutrino non–standard interactions with atmospheric neutrino data
We have reconsidered the atmospheric neutrino anomaly in light of the latest data from Super–Kamiokande contained events and from Super–Kamiokande and MACRO up-going muons. We have reanalysed the proposed solution to the atmospheric neutrino anomaly in terms of non–standard neutrino–matter interactions (NSI) as well as the standard νμ → ντ oscillations (OSC). Our statistical analysis shows that...
متن کاملNeutrino factory optimization for non-standard interactions
We study the optimization of a neutrino factory with respect to non-standard neutral current neutrino interactions, and compare the results to those obtained without non-standard interactions. We discuss the muon energy, baselines, and oscillation channels as degrees of freedom. Our conclusions are based on both analytical calculations and on a full numerical simulation of the neutrino factory ...
متن کاملBounding Effective Operators at the One-Loop Level: The Case of Four-Fermion Neutrino Interactions
The contributions of non-standard four-neutrino contact interactions to electroweak observables are considered at the one-loop level by using the effective quantum field theory. The analysis is done in terms of three unknown parameters: the strength of the non-standard neutrino interactions, F̃ , an additional derivative coupling needed to renormalize the divergent contributions that appear when...
متن کاملNon-standard Interactions: Atmospheric versus Neutrino Factory Experiments
We consider the potential of a generic neutrino factory (NUFACT) in probing non– standard neutrino–matter interactions (NSI). We find that the sensitivity to flavourchanging (FC) NSI can be substantially improved with respect to present atmospheric neutrino data, especially at energies higher than approximately 50 GeV, where the effect of the tau mass is small. For example, a 100 GeV NUFACT can...
