Parallel 1: Neutrinos
- Doojin Kim
In this talk, I explore the potential of future small-scale gas TPCs with directional ability to probe neutrino interactions beyond the standard model. Working in the framework of non-standard neutrino interactions (NSI), we calculate combined energy-angle distributions of electron and nucleus recoils by solar neutrinos to place constraints on NSI parameters. We estimate that with realistic...
We present the first detailed analysis of nuclear form factor uncertainties relevant for neutrino trident processes at argon-based short-baseline neutrino detectors. Accurately quantifying this uncertainty is important to perform precision Standard Model physics analyses and Beyond the Standard Model searches using neutrino tridents of all flavors, a feat which will be possible for the first...
Probing flavor models which provide a rationale behind the observed pattern of neutrino mixings can bring us closer to understanding the origin of flavor in the Standard Model of particle physics. The most predictive flavor models predict not only the mixing parameters but also correlations between them. We study several classes of flavor models, contrast their predictions with current...
We study the neutrino flux at the accelerator stages of a future muon collider by simulating a hydrogen gas detector at a fixed location down the beamline. We investigated the event rate and energy spectra of neutrinos produced by the muons decaying in the accelerators. By comparing the resulting neutrino energy scales and interaction rates with those expected from existing neutrino factory...
