  1. 6. Weigh them all! : Cosmological searches for the neutrino mass scale and mass ordering

    Författare :Sunny Vagnozzi; Katherine Freese; Lars Bergström; Alessandra Silvestri; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neutrinos; neutrino mass; neutrino mass ordering; cosmology; cosmic microwave background; large-scale structure; galaxy surveys; dark energy; cosmic inflation; data analysis; teoretisk fysik; Theoretical Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The elusive neutrinos are among the most intriguing constituents of the particle zoo. The observation of neutrino flavour oscillations, indicating that neutrinos are massive, provides the only direct evidence for physics beyond the Standard Model. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Indirect Searches for Dark Matter in the Milky Way with IceCube-DeepCore

    Författare :Martin Wolf; Chad Finley; Maurizio Spurio; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Dark Matter Annihilation; WIMP; Milky Way; IceCube Neutrino Observatory; DeepCore; neutrino; particle physics; high-energy physics; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : Many astronomical observations, including rotational curve measurements of stars and the analysis of the cosmic microwave background, suggest the existence of an invisible matter density content in the Universe, commonly called Dark Matter (DM). Possibly, DM could be of particle nature, where Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) could be a viable DM candidate. LÄS MER

  3. 8. Predictions of Effective Models in Neutrino Physics

    Författare :Johannes Bergström; Tommy Ohlsson; Rikard Enberg; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Neutrino mass; lepton mixing; Majorana neutrinos; effective field theory; Weinberg operator; seesaw models; low-scale seesaw models; inverse seesaw; right-handed neutrinos; renormalization group; threshold effects; neutrinoless double beta decay; Elementary particle physics; Elementarpartikelfysik;

    Sammanfattning : Experiments on neutrino oscillations have confirmed that neutrinos have small, but non-zero masses, and that the interacting neutrino states do not have definite masses, but are mixtures of such states.The seesaw models make up a group of popular models describing the small neutrino masses and the corresponding mixing.

  4. 9. Phenomenology of SO(10) Grand Unified Theories

    Författare :Marcus Pernow; Tommy Ohlsson; Werner Rodejohann; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Grand unified theories; Renormalization group equations; Neutrino masses; Gauge coupling unification;

    Sammanfattning : Although the Standard Model (SM) of particle physics describes observations well, there are several shortcomings of it. The most crucial of these are that the SM cannot explain the origin of neutrino masses and the existence of dark matter. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Searching for dark matter in the Galactic Halo with IceCube using high energy cascades

    Författare :Samuel Flis; Klas Hultqvist; Chad Finley; Emmanuel Moulin; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; IceCube; neutrino; dark matter; halo; Milky Way; fysik; Physics;

    Sammanfattning : The presence of dark matter is inferred at scales ranging from rotations of galaxies to imprints in the CMB – the Big Bang after-glow. The nature of dark matter is, however, still unknown as no detection other than the gravitational one has been made. LÄS MER
