Neutrino-nucleus interactions: open questions and future projects

نویسنده

  • Cristina Volpe
چکیده

We discuss various issues concerning the interactions of nuclei with neutrinos of low impinging energies (i.e. having several tens of MeV to a few hundred MeV) of interest for particle physics, nuclear physics and astrophysics. We focus, in particular, on open questions as well as possible strategies to obtain more experimental information. The option of a low-energy beta-beam facility is extensively discussed. We also mention its potential concerning the neutrino magnetic moment.

Experimental 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...

THEORETICAL SUMMARY: 1999 Electroweak Session of the Rencontres de Moriond

The following aspects of the electroweak interactions are discussed, based on presentations here: the status of the Standard Model, CP violation, neutrino masses and oscillations, super-symmetry and models in extra dimensions, and future projects. Particular emphasis is laid on the tests of CP and CPT by KTeV and CPLEAR, on the problems of degenerate neutrinos, on supersymmetric dark matter, on...

Theoretical Issues in Neutrino Physics

In this talk I would like to discuss a number of the open questions we have entertained about neutrinos since they were first postulated more than 65 years ago, as well as a few of the possible answers that may result from atmospheric, solar, and terrestrial neutrino experiments. Indeed, the list of open questions has proven surprisingly resistant to experiment: • What are the masses of the νe,...
