Neutrino physics at accelerators
نویسنده
چکیده
Present and future neutrino experiments at accelerators are mainly concerned with understanding the neutrino oscillation phenomenon and its implications. Here a brief account of neutrino oscillations is given together with a description of the supporting data. Some current and planned accelerator neutrino experiments are also explained.

متن کاملFuture Accelerators ( ? ) 1
I describe the future accelerator facilities that are currently foreseen for electroweak scale physics, neutrino physics, and nuclear structure. I will explore the physics justification for these machines, and suggest how the case for future accelerators can be made. In asking me to give one of the closing presentations at this meeting, I imagine the conference organizers may expect me to impar...
متن کاملAccelerator Neutrino Beams
Neutrino beams at from high-energy proton accelerators have been instrumental discovery tools in particle physics. Neutrino beams are derived from the decays of charged π and K mesons, which in turn are created from proton beams striking thick nuclear targets. The precise selection and manipulation of the π/K beam control the energy spectrum and type of neutrino beam. This article describes the...
متن کاملProbing Neutrino Parameters at Accelerators
Abstract: The simplest unified extension of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with bilinear R–Parity violation provides a predictive scheme for neutrino masses and mixings which can account for the observed atmospheric and solar neutrino anomalies. Despite the smallness of neutrino masses R-parity violation is observable at present and future high-energy colliders, providing an unambigu...
