“…At lower energies, there are cross section measurements with oscillated ν τ from OPERA [45] and SuperKamiokande [46]. Most recently, Ice-Cube [47] also reported evidence of oscillated ν τ . The results from OPERA, SuperKamiokande, and IceCube are not easily compared with DONuT, as they have not provided constraints on the energy-independent part of the cross section, but their energy ranges are indicated in the right panel of Fig.…”

Detecting and studying high-energy collider neutrinos with FASER at the LHC

et al. 2020

Neutrinos are copiously produced at particle colliders, but no collider neutrino has ever been detected. Colliders produce both neutrinos and anti-neutrinos of all flavors at very high energies, and they are therefore highly complementary to those from other sources. FASER, the Forward Search Experiment at the LHC, is ideally located to provide the first detection and study of collider neutrinos. We investigate the prospects for neutrino studies with FASERν, a proposed component of FASER, consisting of emulsion films B. Denton and Callum Wilkinson: FASER Associate.

New physics in neutrino sector can reveal itself via non-standard neutrino interactions which can result in modification of the standard picture of neutrino propagation in matter. Experiments with atmospheric neutrinos has been used to probe this scenario. Using publicly available three-year low energy data in IceCube DeepCore we place bounds on the parameters αβ of nonstandard neutrino interactions in propagation. We obtain restrictive constraints not only for µτ sector but also for flavor changing interactions involving electron neutrinos. 1

“…When it comes to both confirming the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm and determining the oscillation parameters, all current statistical power comes from studies of ν µ and ν e (plus antineutrinos) disappearance and ν µ → ν e (plus antineutrinos) appearance. While there is definitive evidence for ν µ → ν τ appearance from both atmospheric [1][2][3] and beam [4] neutrino experiments, the quantitative impact of the current ν τ appearance data is, at best, sub-dominant. * Among the goals of the next-generation long-baseline neutrino experiments -the Long-Baseline Neutrino facility to the Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (LBNF-DUNE) in the United States and the Tokai to Hyper-Kamiokande (T2HK) experiment in Japan -are the precision measurements of neutrino oscillation parameters, exploring CP-invariance violation in the neutrino sector, and, perhaps most important, testing the validity of the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm and looking for more new physics in the neutrino sector.…”

Physics with beam tau-neutrino appearance at DUNE

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

We explore the capabilities of the upcoming Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) to measure ν τ charged-current interactions and the associated oscillation probability P (ν µ → ν τ ) at its far detector, concentrating on how such results can be used to probe neutrino properties and interactions. DUNE has the potential to identify significantly more ν τ events than all existing experiments and can use this data sample to nontrivially test the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm by providing complementary measurements to those from the ν e appearance and ν µ disappearance channels. We further discuss the sensitivity of the ν τ appearance channel to several hypotheses for the physics that may lurk beyond the three-massive-neutrinos paradigm: a non-unitary lepton mixing matrix, the 3 + 1 light neutrinos hypothesis, and the existence of non-standard neutral-current neutrino interactions. Throughout, we also consider the relative benefits of the proposed high-energy tune of the Long-Baseline Neutrino Facility (LBNF) beam-line.
