oral

In this talk I will introduce the neutrino Non Standard Interactions (NSI) formalism, a very convenient and widespread way of parameterizing the effects of new physics in neutrino oscillations. I will review the present bounds on NSI both from a model independent point of view and in particular realizations emphasizing the role placed by processes related to NSI by gauge invariance in setting...

The present contribution reviews the latest results of the solar neutrino experiments Borexino and SNO and their impact on the standard solar model and the global analysis of neutrino oscillations: The Borexino result on the Be-7 neutrino survival probability gives, for the first time, experimental evidence of vacuum neutrino oscillations at sub-MeV energies, backing up the MSW-LMA oscillation...
