What do we know about neutrinos?

  • I. They do exist
  • F. A. Sco/, Phys. Rev. 48, 391 (1935)
  • II. There are three light

neutrino species Nν=2.984±0.008

Z0

  • III. Neutrinos do oscillate and

therefore they are massive

Measurement with target having different Z/N raRo is required.

A precision test of 𝜏 is a sensiRve test of new physics above the weak scale. SensiRvity to a hypotheRcal dark Z mediator, a possible explanaRon for the (g-2)μ anomaly, can be reached with a 5% measurement.

– 1053 ergs of energy released – 99% carried by neutrinos – A few happen every century in our Galaxy, but the last one

  • bserved was over 300 years ago
  • Dominant contributor to Galactic nucleosynthesis
  • Neutrinos and the weak interaction play a crucial role in the

mechanism, which is not not well understood

SN neutrino spectra, 0.1 s post-bounce Nuclear reactors Eν<10 MeV Too cold H.E. “accelerators” Eν >100 MeV Too hot

Supernova neutrino observa;ons

  • Measurement of the neutrino energy

spectra and time distribution from a Galactic supernova would provide a wealth of information on the conditions in supernovae, neutrino oscillations, etc.
