Neutrino Physics – The Hundred Year Quest
Jacob Schneps (Tufts University)
Seminar Room 3, 15:00h
We will first review the path that brought us from Pauli’s hypothesis
of 1930 to the state of knowledge of the standard three-neutrino
model achieved by the early years of the new millennium. We will
then look at more recent developments that determine some of the
parameters of this model and hint at phenomena that go beyond it,
e.g., sterile neutrinos, differences between neutrino and anti-neutrino
behavior, non standard interactions. Finally we will look at what we
know about the three-neutrino model, what we don’t know, and plans
and proposals for future experiments, over both the short term and
the long term, to improve our knowledge and seek new phenomena.
