Neutrino Mass and New Physics
arXiv:hep-ph/0603118 · doi:10.1088/1742-6596/53/1/003
Abstract
We review the present state of and future outlook for our understanding of neutrino masses and mixings. We discuss what we think are the most important perspectives on the plausible and natural scenarios for neutrinos and what may have the most promise to throw light on the flavor problem of quarks and leptons. We focus on the seesaw mechanism which fits into the big picture of particle physics such as supersymmetry and grand unification providing a unified approach to flavor problem of quarks and leptons. We argue that in combination with family symmetries, this may be at the heart of a unified understanding of flavor puzzle. We also discuss other new physics ideas such as neutrinos in models with extra dimensions and possible theoretical implications of sterile neutrinos. We outline some tests for the various schemes.
