Non-standard neutrino properties
A discussion of several exotic models and how well they are able to describe the data, with particular emphasis on atmospheric neutrinos
163Ho as a target for cosmic antineutrinos
The electron capture decay of the isotope 163Ho has been proposed since a long time as a candidate for measuring the electron neutrino mass and recently the interest on this idea has been renewed. A direct observation of the cosmic antineutrino background could be made using a target made of this isotope. We discuss the requirements for an experiment aiming to obtain this result, comparing it with experiments using tritium as target
Relic antineutrino capture on Ho-163 decaying nuclei
The electron capture decay of the isotope Ho-163 has been proposed since a long time as a candidate for measuring the electron neutrino mass and recently the interest on this idea has been renewed. In this Letter we note that a direct observation of the cosmic antineutrino background could be made using a target made of this isotope. We further discuss the requirements for an experiment aiming to obtain this result. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
THE DECAY PI-0 -] GAMMA-NU-NU-BAR AS A PROBE OF THE TAU-NEUTRINO MAGNETIC-MOMENT
Assuming a nonvanishing neutrino magnetic moment, the decay rate for pi-0 --> gamma-nu-nu-BAR has been calculated. The experimental study of this process allows an improvement of the upper limit of the tau-neutrino magnetic moment, if sensitivity to a branching ratio B approximately 10(-11) can be reached
