    Sammanfattning : The standard model of particle physics can excellently describe the vast majorityof data of particle physics experiments. However, in its simplest form, it cannot account for the fact that the neutrinos are massive particles and lepton flavorsmixed, as required by the observation of neutrino oscillations. LÄS MER

  2. 2. 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.

  3. 3. Particle Phenomenology of Compact Extra Dimensions

    Författare :Henrik Melbéus; Tommy Ohlsson; Andrea Romanino; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Higher-dimensional quantum field theories; universal extra dimensions; Arkani-Hamed–Dimopolous–Dvali ADD model; hierarchy problem; Kaluza– Klein dark matter; neutrino mass; seesaw mechanism; leptonic mixing; renormalization group running; collider phenomenology; Large Hadron Collider;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is an investigation of the subject of extra dimensions in particle physics. In recent years, there has been a large interest in this subject. In particular, a number of models have been suggested that provide solutions to some of the problem with the current Standard Model of particle physics. LÄS MER

  4. 4. Astrophysical and Collider Signatures of Extra Dimensions

    Författare :Henrik Melbéus; Tommy Ohlsson; Jörn Kersten; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Extra-dimensional quantum field theories; universal extra dimensions; Kaluza-Klein dark matter; Arkani-Hamed-Dimopoulos-Dvali model; hierarchy problem; neutrino mass; seesaw mechanism; Large Hadron Collider phenomenology; Elementary particle physics; Elementarpartikelfysik;

    Sammanfattning : In recent years, there has been a large interest in the subject of extra dimensions in particle physics. In particular, a number of models have been suggested which provide solutions to some of the problems with the current Standard Model of particle physics, and which could be tested in the next generation of high-energy experiments.

  5. 5. Theoretical and Phenomenological Studies of Neutrino Physics

    Författare :Mattias Blennow; Tommy Ohlsson; Eligio Lisi; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; neutrino mass; neutrino mixing; neutrino oscillations; matter effects; non-standard effects; the day-night effect; solar neutrinos; accelerator neutrinos; exact solutions; three-flavor effects; large density; neutrino decay; neutrino decoherence; neutrino absorption; non-standard neutrino interactions; seesaw mechanism; stability criteria; leptogenesis; Physics; Fysik;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis is devoted to the theory and phenomenology of neutrino physics. While the standard model of particle physics has been extremely successful, it fails to account for massive neutrinos, which are necessary to describe the observations of neutrino oscillations made by several different experiments.
