Is it a GOAL ? April 15-19, 2008 4th NO-VE@Venice
When we reach to the situation .. Does it mean the end of neutrino experiments? April 15-19, 2008 4th NO-VE@Venice
I argue the answer is NO Neutrinos are proved to be useful probe into physics beyond Standard Model Why should we believe that it is merely an accident? Cosmological neutrinos will soon become machinery of probing nature People suspected several candidates: Non-standard interactions of ’s Quantum decoherence etc… Of course, Majorana nature of must be demonstrated (or refuted). Also keep in mind the possibility of totally unexpected ! April 15-19, 2008 4th NO-VE@Venice
Non-standard interactions (NSI) of 's If there exists NEW PHYSICS at TeV scale there might be NSI of ’s expressed by higher dimensional operators But coefficient may be small on dimensional ground, ~order (MW/MNP)2 (MW/MNP)2 = 0.01 (0.001) if MNP = 1 (10) TeV Wolfenstein, Grossman, Berezhiani-Rossi, Davidson et al. … many people April 15-19, 2008 4th NO-VE@Venice
Necessity of neutrino factory or some other equivalents Simple estimate: ~ 13 ; superbeam sin2213 =0.01 If we want to explore NSI with coupling 0.001-0.01 times weaker than weak interaction we need neutrino factory or some other equivalents What is the role that can be played by the ongoing & near future experiments?

Non Standard Interaction (NSI) It comes in into 3 places, production, propagation, & detection Grossmann, Ota-Sato-Yamashita, Huber et al. … I this talk, I concentrate on effects of NSI in propagation in matter governed by evolution eq. April 15-19, 2008 4th NO-VE@Venice
Exploring NSI with Nufact There are 2 (serious!) problems: 13 - NSI confusion NSI can mimic effect of nonzero 13 ---> serious problem for 13 measurement 2 phase confusion CPV phase of can be confused with KM phase ---> serious problem for measurement April 15-19, 2008 4th NO-VE@Venice

Theory of NSI; current status not very satisfactory production, detection, propagation are all independent, or relation model dependent One way is to classify ``model dependence’’ Gavera et al. ``unitarity violation’’ approach effective dimension 6 operators consistent with charged lepton constraints?
