Hyper-Kamiokande (Hyper-K) is the next upgrade of the currently operating Super-Kamiokande experiment. Hyper-K is a large water Cherenkov detector with a fiducial volume which will be approximately 10 times larger than its precursor. A system of small photomultipliers as implemented in the KM3NeT experiment, the so called multi-PMT module (mPMT), is considered as an option to improve the...

The atmospheric neutrino flux represents a continuous source that can be exploited to infer properties about Cosmic Rays and neutrino oscillation physics. The JUNO observatory, a 20 kt liquid scintillator currently under construction in China, will be able to detect the atmospheric flux, given the large fiducial volume and the excellent energy resolution. In this study, a sample of Monte Carlo...

Future neutrino experiments require measurements of absolute neutrino cross section at the GeV scale with a precision of 1% which nowadays is limited by the uncertainties on neutrino fluxes. The aim of the ENUBET project is to measure the neutrino flux by monitoring positrons from $K^{+}$ $\rightarrow$ $\nu_{e}$ $e^{+}$ $\pi^{0}$ decays on an event by event basis. For this purpose a...

We present four new types of constraints on the lepton mass matrices that can be derived through adequate symmetries imposed on renormalizable models. The models are based on the type-I seesaw mechanism and have three right-handed neutrinos. Each texture leads to a Majorana neutrino mass matrix with only five independent rephasing-invariant parameters to predict nine observables. The...

Evidence of finite neutrino masses and cosmological dark matter both imply the necessity of physics beyond Standard Model, and triggered intensive and diverse theoretical and experimental research programs. Germanium ionization detectors with their low threshold and excellent energy resolution are particularly suited to pursue such studies where the final state measurables are nuclear recoils...

The vGEN project is aimed to study neutrino scattering at the close vicinity of the reactor core of Kalinin Nuclear Power Plant. The main interests are connected with the detection of coherent elastic neutrino-nucleus scattering (CEvNS) and magnetic moment of neutrino. A magnetic moment is the fundamental parameter of the neutrino and its investigation may lead to results beyond the standard...

Designed to observe neutrinos from astrophysical sources at TeV-PeV energies, IceCube and its DeepCore in-fill array also observe large numbers of atmospheric neutrinos down to a few GeV. Using these events, DeepCore can measure the “atmospheric” neutrino mixing parameters in an energy range higher than neutrino beam experiments and well above the tau lepton production threshold, making...

DsTau is a project which has been proposed at the CERN SPS to study tau-neutrino production aiming at providing important data for future $\nu_\tau$ studies. A precise measurement of the $\nu_\tau$ cross section would enable a search for new physics effects in $\nu_\tau$ CC interactions. It also has practical importance for the next generation experiments for neutrino oscillation studies and...

The Type III See-saw Models are extensions of the Standard Model with some fermion triplets, with the purpose of generating neutrino masses. The minimal inverse cases, which can explain the smallness of neutrino masses even having relatively light triplets and large coupling constants, consist in the addiction of 2 or 3 fermion triplets. In this talk I will review the main aspects of these...

We consider the ν μ → ν τ appearance channel in the future Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) which offers a good statistics of the ν_τ sample. In order to measure its impact on constraining the oscillation parameters, we consider several assumptions on the efficiency for ν_τ charged-current signal events (with subsequent τ → e decay) and the related backgrounds and study the effects...

Neutrinoless double beta decay (0νDBD) is a nuclear process which is permitted within theories more general than the Standard Model (SM) in its original formulation. The discovery of this double-beta decay (DBD) mode would confirm the lepton number violation and the nature of neutrinos (Majorana particles) and could provide important information about neutrino properties still... -

Multiple theories beyond the Standard Model predict the existence of heavy neutrinos, such as the Type I or Type III seesaw mechanisms which can explain the light neutrino masses, or left-right symmetric models which restore parity symmetry in weak interactions at higher energy scale and predict right-handed counterparts to the weak gauge bosons. Searches for such heavy Majorana or Dirac...
