Title: Phenomenological aspects of Neutrino masses & mixing
Speaker: Newton Nath, Physical Research Laboratory, Ahmedabad India
Abstract: In this talk I will be discussing two aspects of Neutrino Physics from our current phenomenological studies. In the first half, I will be focusing on the DUNE long baseline experiment and its physics goal. Specifically , I will discuss the role of anti-neutrinos and the role of disappearance channel to determine octant and CP violation phase by considering 10 kt detector mass of DUNE far detector. In the second part of my talk, I will discuss on the consequences of Majorana Neutrino mass matrix when we assume that its obey flavor antisymmetry rather than flavor symmetry under some discrete subgroups of SU(3). We take up a specific example of A_5 group and discuss possible mixing patterns under this group.
