Plenary Speaker / Conférencier plénier

The discovery 15 years ago that neutrinos have mass and can spontaneously change their flavors has led to intense activity in nuclear and particle physics, including plans for powerful neutrino beams for long-baseline oscillation experiments and for ton-scale ultraclean underground detectors for double beta decay studies. Our improved knowledge of neutrinos has also enabled us to understand...
