Description
I discuss the sensitivity of the proposed DUNE experiment to the existence of new neutrino mass eigenstates. I allow for a large range of new mass-squared difference, from values smaller than $10^{-6}$eV$^2$ to values larger than 1 eV$^2$ and discuss the sensitivity to new sources of CP-invariance violation. I also address how well DUNE can disentangle different new physics scenarios, including the existence of a fourth neutrino, non-standard neutrino interactions, and the existence of extra-dimensions of space. Finally, I comment on the complementarity of DUNE and other next-generation long-baseline neutrino experiments.
