This chapter of the report "Flavor in era LHC" Workshop discusses theoretical, phenomenological and experimental issues related to flavor phenomena charged lepton sector conserving CP-violating processes. We review current limits main theoretical models for structure fundamental particles. analyze consequences available data, setting constraints on explicit beyond standard model, presenting benchmarks discovery potential forthcoming measurements both at LHC low energy, exploring options...
Quarks and leptons, which have the same electroweak interactions, markedly differ in their masses mixing patterns. Neutrino are very small while quark large lepton matrix contains two angles mixings small. Concentrating on sector, this review presents flavor puzzles with effective field theories. Beyond standard model theories discussed that contain organizing principles designed to provide natural explanations of neutrino mixings.
The conclusions of the Physics Working Group international scoping study a future Neutrino Factory and super-beam facility (the ISS) are presented. ISS was carried by community between NuFact05, 7th International Workshop on Factories Superbeams, Laboratori Nazionali di Frascati, Rome, June 21-26, 2005) NuFact06 (Ivine, California, 24{30 August 2006). physics case for an extensive experimental programme to understand properties neutrino is presented role high-precision measurements...
A generation of neutrino experiments have established that neutrinos mix and probably mass. The mixing phenomenon points to processes beyond those the Standard Model, possibly at Grand Unification energy scale. extensive sequence will be required measure precisely all parameters matrix, culminating with discovery study leptonic CP violation. As a first step, extensions conventional pion/kaon decay beams, such as off-axis beams or low-energy super-beams, been considered. These could yield...
We study models in which the 750 GeV diphoton excess is due to a scalar decaying two pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons that subsequently decay into pairs of highly boosted photons, misidentified as individual photons. Performing model independent analysis we find that, with axion mass around $200$ MeV, this class theories can naturally explain observed signal large width, without violating monojet constraints. At same time requirement prompt be satisfied only relatively axion-photon coupling,...
A new flavor changing electron neutrino interaction with matter would always dominate the ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{e}$ oscillation probability at sufficiently high energies. Being suppressed by ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{13},$ energy scale which effect starts to be relevant may within reach of realistic experiments, where peculiar dependence signal could give rise a clear signature in ${\ensuremath{\nu}}_{e}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{\ensuremath{\nu}}_{\ensuremath{\tau}}$ channel. The latter observed...
A charged lepton contribution to the solar neutrino mixing induces a theta_13, barring cancellations/correlations, which is independent of model building options in sector. We illustrate two robust arguments for that be within expected sensitivity high intensity beam experiments. find case sector gives rise maximal angle (the natural situation if hierarchy inverse) leads theta_13 close or exceeding experimental bound depending on precise values theta_12, theta_23, an unknown phase and...
