Tri-bimaximal mixing and the neutrino oscillation data

R-Parity-violating supersymmetry

As direct dark matter experiments continue to increase in size, they will become sensitive to neutrinos from astrophysical sources. For experiments that do not have directional sensitivity, coherent neutrino scattering from several sources represents an important background to understand, as it can almost perfectly mimic an authentic weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) signal. Here we explore in detail the effect of neutrino backgrounds on the discovery potential of WIMPs over the entire mass range of 500 MeV to 10 TeV. We show that, given the theoretical and measured uncertainties on the neutrino backgrounds, direct detection experiments lose sensitivity to light ($\ensuremath{\sim}10\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$) and heavy ($\ensuremath{\sim}100\text{ }\text{ }\mathrm{GeV}$) WIMPs with a spin-independent cross section below ${10}^{\ensuremath{-}45}$ and ${\text{10}}^{\ensuremath{-}49}\text{ }\text{ }{\mathrm{cm}}^{2}$, respectively.

Implication of neutrino backgrounds on the reach of next generation dark matter direct detection experiments

The previously published atmospheric neutrino data did not distinguish whether muon neutrinos were oscillating into tau neutrinos or sterile neutrinos, as both hypotheses fit the data. Using data recorded in 1100 live days of the Super-Kamiokande detector, we use three complementary data samples to study the difference in zenith angle distribution due to neutral currents and matter effects. We find no evidence favoring sterile neutrinos, and reject the hypothesis at the $99%$ confidence level. On the other hand, we find that oscillation between muon and tau neutrinos suffices to explain all the results in hand.

Tau neutrinos favored over sterile neutrinos in atmospheric muon neutrino oscillations.

Theoretical and phenomenological implications of R-parity violation in supersymmetric theories are discussed in the context of particle physics and cosmology. Fundamental aspects include the relation with continuous and discrete symmetries and the various allowed patterns of R-parity breaking. Recent developments on the generation of neutrino masses and mixings within different scenarios of R-parity violation are discussed. The possible contribution of R-parity-violating Yukawa couplings in processes involving virtual supersymmetric particles and the resulting constraints are reviewed. Finally, direct production of supersymmetric particles and their decays in the presence of R-parity-violating couplings is discussed together with a survey of existing constraints from collider experiments.
