Short Baseline Accelerator-based Neutrino Oscillation Searches
نویسنده
چکیده
We review the status of the search for neutrino oscillations in the short baseline regime with experiments at accelerators. The evidence for ν̄μ→ ν̄e from the LSND experiment is compared with the negative results of the KARMEN ν̄μ→ ν̄e search and with the results from NOMAD and NuTeV in the same flavor mixing channel. We describe the upcoming MiniBooNE experiment which should be sufficiently sensitive to unambiguously confirm or completely rule out the LSND signal.

Long baseline neutrino oscillation experiments
Evidences for neutrino oscillations coming from atmospheric and solar observations can be probed by terrestrial long baseline experiments. This requires accelerator beams or nuclear power plants. The current status of these searches as well as future activities are discussed. A precise determination of all matrix elements and searches for a leptonic CP-violation will be possible with high inten...
متن کاملShort-Baseline Neutrino Oscillations at a Neutrino Factory
Within the framework of three-neutrino and four-neutrino scenarios that can describe the results of the LSND experiment, we consider the capabilities of short baseline neutrino oscillation experiments at a neutrino factory. We find that, when short baseline (L ∼ 100 km) neutrino factory measurements are used together with other accelerator-based oscillation results, the complete three-neutrino ...
متن کاملNeutrino Cross Section Measurements for Long-baseline Accelerator-based Neutrino Oscillation Experiments
Neutrino oscillations are clear evidence for physics beyond the standard model. The goal of next-generation neutrino oscillation experiments is to find a non-zero θ13, the last mixing matrix element for which we only know an upper limit. For this, next-generation long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments require an order of magnitude better sensitivities. In particular, accelerator-based e...
متن کاملStatus and Prospects of Long Baseline ν Oscillation Experiments
We will start with a brief overview of neutrino oscillation physics with emphasis on the remaining unanswered questions. Next we will discuss results and status of long baseline accelerator neutrino oscillation experiments that are in a mature data taking mode, have just started or are about to start data taking. Then, we will present the next generation of long baseline experiments with a prim...
متن کاملAccelerator and reactor neutrino oscillation experiments in a simple three-generation framework.
We present a new approach to the analysis of neutrino oscillation experiments , in the one mass-scale limit of the three-generation scheme. In this framework we reanalyze and recombine the most constraining accelerator and reactor data, in order to draw precise bounds in the new parameter space. We consider our graphical representations as particularly suited to show the interplay among the dii...
