LIGHT FROM THE NEUTRINOS

Sudip Jana

Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics, Heidelberg
Afternoon

Neutrinos are one of the most abundant known particles in the universe, yet the least understood ones. In this lecture, I will discuss what sort of physics we expect to learn from neutrinos. I will highlight the big questions in neutrino physics and the impact of future experiments in answering these, including the complementarities among the experiments at the energy, lifetime, intensity, and cosmic frontiers. A  foundational understanding of particle physics will suffice to follow the course.
