Federico Scutti (University of Melbourne (AU))27/08/2019, 14:00Oral Presentation
Multiple theories beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of heavy neutrinos, such as the Type I or Type III seesaw mechanisms which can explain the light neutrino masses, or left-right symmetric models which restore parity symmetry in weak interactions at higher energy scale and predict right-handed counterparts to the weak gauge bosons. Searches for such heavy Majorana or Dirac...

We investigate tau neutrinos from heavy flavor hadrons (prompt neutrinos) that can be explored at a high rapidity LHC experiment. A large number of tau neutrinos can be produced in pp collision at the LHC in the very forward region (y>6.5), where its main source is Ds mesons since the weak boson contribution is negligible. Abundant production of tau neutrinos will allow the precise study of...

DsTau is a project at the CERN SPS to study tau-neutrino production aiming at providing important data for future $\nu_\tau$ studies. A precise measurement of the $\nu_\tau$ cross section would enable a search for new physics effects in $\nu_\tau$ CC interactions. It also has practical importance for the next generation experiments for neutrino oscillation studies and astrophysical $\nu_\tau$...

The KM3NeT Collaboration is currently building the next generation of large-volume (km3-size) water-Cherenkov neutrino telescopes to the bottom of the Mediterranean sea. The denser of the two detectors is called ORCA, which is optimised for the detection of atmospheric neutrinos with energies above ∼1 GeV. The main research target of the ORCA detector is the measurement of the neutrino mass...

The IceCube neutrino observatory uses a cubic-km of glacial South Pole ice instrumented with over 5000 optical sensors to detect Cherenkov light produced by atmospheric and astrophysical neutrino interactions. A central region of the detector in the deepest ice, known as DeepCore, is more densely instrumented, allowing neutrinos with energies as low as ~5 GeV to be detected. The upcoming...

The Super-Kamiokande and T2K substantially developed our understanding of oscillations by observing the sub-dominant electron-neutrino appearance channel. The next-generation Hyper-Kamiokande experiment will build on this with much higher statistics, enabling precision tests of the Standard PMNS picture. In the baseline design of 2 tanks at Kamioka, a detailed investigation of oscillations...

The nuSTORM facility will provide \nu_e and \nu_\mu beams from the

decay of low energy muons confined within a storage ring. The
instrumentation of the ring, combined with the excellent knowledge of
muon decay, will make it possible to determine the neutrino flux at
the %-level or better. The neutrino and anti-neutrino event rates are
such that the nuSTORM facility serving a suite of... -

The features of the NA62 experiment at the CERN SPS – high-intensity setup, trigger-system flexibility, high-frequency tracking of beam particles, redundant particle identification, and high-efficiency photon vetoes – make NA62 particularly suitable to search for long-lived, weakly-coupled particles within Beyond the Standard Model (BSM) physics, using kaon and pion decays as well as operating...

The SHiP Collaboration has proposed a general-purpose experimental facility operating in beam dump mode at the CERN SPS accelerator with the aim of searching for light, long-lived exotic particles of Hidden Sector models. The SHiP experiment incorporates a muon shield based on magnetic sweeping and two complementary apparatuses. The detector immediately downstream of the muon shield is...

After reviewing the motivation for radiative neutrino mass generation and a systematic approach to the construction of such models, I will present a specific model that features two scalar leptoquarks and a vector-like coloured fermion doublet. As well as generating neutrino mass at loop level, this theory can also fit the data hinting at lepton flavour universality violation in semi-leptonic...

Dr Giovanni Gallucci (INFN - Genova)29/08/2019, 14:30Oral Presentation
The measurement of neutrino mass is still one of the most compelling issues in modern particle physics. Beta or electron capture (EC) spectrum end-point study is currently the only experimental method which can provide a model independent measurement. The HOLMES experiment aims at directly measuring the neutrino mass with a calorimetric approach: the source is embedded inside the detector and...

The leptonic CP phase has profound physical consequences due to its possible connection with leptogenesis for explaining the existence of matter in the Universe. To some extent, the leptonic CP phase is even more important than the Higgs boson that provide mass for all fundamental particles. If we cannot understand the existence of matter, why we need to care about their mass. However, the...

Albeit great success in the discovery of neutrino oscillations, inconsistency between three-neutrino model and observed neutrino data has left a conundrum in neutrino physics called "neutrino anomalies". The sterile neutrino, as a hypothetical particle, coined to resolve the anomalies. Although some ambiguities related to the nuclear physics in reactors should be disentangled, the sterile...

The IceCube detector is a multipurpose neutrino observatory located at the South Pole. With an instrumented volume of a cubic kilometer, IceCube can detect neutrino fluxes from all flavors in the GeV - PeV energy range. In the recent years IceCube has heralded the birth of neutrino astronomy with the discovery of an astrophysical neutrino flux. Besides its astrophysical program IceCube is also...

A new mixing between sterile and active neutrinos with an eV-scale mass state is suggested by the results from numbers of short baseline experiments. Measuring electron antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor at very short baseline may reveal such active-to-sterile neutrino oscillation. -

The ICARUS collaboration employed the 760-ton T600 detector in a successful three-year physics run at the underground LNGS laboratories studying neutrino oscillations with the CNGS neutrino beam from CERN, and searching for atmospheric neutrino interactions. ICARUS performed a sensitive search for LSND-like anomalous $\nu_e$ appearance in the CNGS beam, which contributed to the constraints the...

The primary goal of MicroBooNE is to address the origin of the excess of low energy electromagnetic-like events observed by MiniBooNE. This talk will present MicroBooNE's progress towards a low-energy excess result, including the status of targeted searches for both single-photon-like and electron-like events.
