  1. 2. A model for neutrino masses and mixing based on the non-abelian discrete symmetry A4

    Neutrino mass and mixing
    In this talk I will present a see-saw A4 model for Tri-Bimaximal mixing which is based on a very economical flavour symmetry and field content and still possesses all the good features of A4 models. In particular the charged lepton mass hierarchies are determined by the A4 x Z4 flavour symmetry itself without invoking a Froggatt-Nielsen U(1) symmetry. Tri-Bimaximal mixing is exact in leading...

  2. 47. OPERA: A first tau-neutrino appearance candidate.

    Neutrino mass and mixing
    OPERA is a long-baseline neutrino experiment dedicated to the study of muon-neutrino to tau-neutrino oscillation. Using the high-energy CERN to LNGS beam (CNGS), it is the first experiment looking directly for tau-neutrino appearance from oscillation of muon-neutrinos. Runs with CNGS neutrinos are carried out successfully since 2008. After a brief introduction on the OPERA hybrid detector...

    Neutrino mass and mixing
    The OPERA neutrino detector is an hybrid detector. It consists of a target of bricks made of lead plates interleaved with nuclear emulsion films with micron resolution and electronic detectors (ED) to select the brick containing a neutrino interaction, to time stamp an event, and to measure the momentum and the charge in a magnetic spectrometer for particles leaving the target. The main...

  4. 72. T2K experiment: status and first results
    Dr Fanny Dufour (Geneva University)

    Neutrino mass and mixing
    The long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment T2K, which uses a high intensity off-axis muon neutrino beam produced at JPARC, aims at a discovery of oscillation of muon neutrinos into electron neutrinos and measurement of the mixing angle \theta_13, a key parameter for further search of CP violation in the lepton sector. T2K is also designed to precisely measure the oscillation...
