چکیده
Two general models with hierarchical and almost degenerate neutrino masses, which are able to explain the solar and atmospheric anomalies are investigated. We show how neutrinoless double beta decay experiments discern Dirac and Majorana natures of neutrinos. The strongest result is, that almost degenerate neutrinos with masses above 0.22 eV combined with the SMA MSW must be Dirac particles. In the general case, the same bound is true for specific parity assignments. In the near future (GENIUS experiment), one of the hierarchical schemes, and the VO mechanism for almost degenerate neutrinos and specific mixing matrix elements and parity assignments will be tested.

We study the lensing of neutrinos by astrophysical objects. At the difference of photons, neutrinos can cross a stellar core; as a result the lens quality improves. While Uranians alone would benefit from this effect in the Sun, similar effects could be considered for binary systems. Chercheur I. I. S. N. Directeur de recherches du F. N. R. S.

The luminosity of the electron-proton collider, HERA, will be increased by a factor of five during the long shutdown in the year 2000. At the same time longitudinal lepton beam polarisation will be provided for the collider experiments H1 and ZEUS. These far reaching upgrades to the machine will be matched by upgrades to the detectors. The result will be a unique facility for the study of the s...
