Description
Overview of neutrino physic and latest results from accelerator and reactor-based experiments
We review what has been learned about the neutrinos, and then discuss the open questions, explaining why they are interesting and how they may be answered through future experiments.
Super-Kamiokande (Super-K) is an already successful experiment in neutrino research, involved in the discovery of the neutrino oscillations, and performing analysis on a large spectrum of the neutrino physics: from atmospheric neutrinos to solar neutrinos, including neutrino produced by the J-PARC beam in the T2K experiment. The Super-K collaboration is now aiming at the detection of Supernova...
Deeper understanding of neutrino neutral current elastic interaction is desired for improving sensitivity in search for supernova relic neutrinos at Super-Kamiokande. Measuring the interaction with the T2K beam is a effective way, however, currently large systematic errors remain due to a poor model to describe neutron-oxygen reactions. To improve the current model, external experiments...
The Reactor Experiment for Neutrino Oscillation (RENO) has been taking data from August, 2011 using the two identical near and far detectors at Hanbit Nuclear Power Plant in Korea. The neutrino mixing angle θ13 and the squared mass difference Δm2ee have been successfully measured by observing the energy dependent disappearance of reactor antineutrinos tagged by neutron capture by gadolinium....
