Neutrinos: Key to New Physics
arXiv:hep-ph/0411009 · doi:10.1016/j.nuclphysbps.2004.10.081
Abstract
The Seesaw mechanism predicted tiny neutrino masses by postulating a new large scale in particle physics, using new theoretical ideas prompted by the Standard Model. It adds credence to a theoretical vista that is a quarter century old, and fits with the most endearing speculations of ultimate unification. By relating the measurement of static neutrino properties to near-Planck physics, it may even prove key to solving the riddles of flavor.
