Parallel Session on Neutrinos
Very brief summary of the field: Strong evidence for two different neutrino oscillations Consistent picture emerging in terms of a MNSP matrix, analogous to the CKM matrix in the quark sector Questions/priorities: Improve the measurements of the atmospheric (D(m23)2, q23) and solar (D(m12)2, q12) mixing parameters Neutrino mass hierarchy: m1<m2<m3 or m3<m1<m2? Absolute neutrino mass scale? Fundamental nature of neutrinos: Dirac or Majorana? Measure the other MNSP parameters: q13, CP phase d LSND result? Beyond the beyond… Precision measurements of neutrino cross-sections MNSP matrix } neutrinoless bb decay

Neutrinoless Double-beta Decay
If neutrinos are Majorana and not Dirac particles, double beta decay with no neutrinos is possible Rate is proportional to mbb, which depends on all neutrino masses and mixing angles (plus new Majorana phases!) mbb depends on hierarchy Null result doesn’t rule out Majorana n Other beyond SM possibilities… m2>0 m2<0 normal inverted Talk by Rabi Mohapatra
