Neutrino Interactions

چکیده
The study of neutrino interaction physics played an important role in establishing the validity of the theory of weak interactions and electroweak unification. Today, however, the study of interactions of neutrinos takes a secondary role to studies of the properties of neutrinos, such as masses and mixings. This brief introduction describes the historical role that the understanding of neutrino interactions has played in neutrino physics and what we need to understand about neutrino interactions to proceed in future experiments aimed at learning more about neutrinos.

Non-Standard Neutrino Interactions and Neutrino Oscillation Experiments
In analyzing neutrino oscillation experiments it is often assumed that while new physics contributes to neutrino masses, neutrino interactions are given by the Standard Model. We develop a formalism to study new physics effects in neutrino interactions using oscillation experiments. We argue that the notion of branching ratio is not appropriate in this case. We show that a neutrino appearance e...

We review the status of the solutions to neutrino anomalies by flavor-changing as well as flavor-diagonal neutrino interactions. While it is difficult to explain the atmospheric neutrino data the solar neutrino data can be well accounted for by the massless neutrino oscillation induced by such non-standard neutrino interactions. We also discuss the possibility to test such kind of interactions ...
متن کاملExperimental status of neutrino scattering physics and needed measurements
Knowledge of neutrino interactions with a nuclear target at the neutrino energy around sub-GeV is recently getting more and more important as necessary information for accelerator based neutrino oscillation experiments. A study of neutrino interactions contains rich physics of neutrinos with nucleus, and is used to reveal the properties of neutrinos in the oscillation measurements. We review th...
متن کاملThe Solar Neutrino Problem in the Presence of Flavor Changing Neutrino Interactions
We study the effects of flavor changing neutrino interactions on the resonant conversion of solar neutrinos. In particular, we describe how the regions in the ∆m − sin 2θ plane that are consistent with the four solar neutrino experiments are modified for different strengths of New Physics neutrino interactions.
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...
